1. Assessment of Myocardial Perfusion with Magnetic Resonance Imaging and an Intravascular Contrast Agent
Sammanfattning : The intravascular contrast agent NC100150 Injection (Clariscan™) was tested for its ability to induce signal intensity changes in myocardium, both in steady state and during first pass, and thereby demarcating non-perfused myocardium from perfused. Steady state: Ex vivo in pigs and when using 4 mg Fe/kg bodyweight (b.w. LÄS MER
2. Myocardial Scars on MRI : Their Prevalence and Possible Impact
Sammanfattning : Myocardial infarction (MI) causes high morbidity and mortality worldwide and for effective prevention and treatment MIs have to be adequately detected.The existence of clinically unrecognized MIs (UMIs) has been known for the past hundred years, but an ultimate tool for their detection has not yet been found. LÄS MER
3. The Utility of Manganese for Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Transient Myocardial Ischemia
Sammanfattning : In order to improve the diagnosis of coronary artery disease, better methods for detection of myocardial perfusion defects would be useful. One of the methods used for myocardial perfusion evaluation today is magnetic resonance imaging. LÄS MER
4. Clinically Unrecognized Myocardial Scars Detected by MRI
Sammanfattning : A high percentage of unrecognized myocardial infarctions (UMIs) seen at delayed-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DE-MRI) are not detected by ECG. DE-MRI-detected UMIs are independent predictors of cardiovascular events in patients with coronary artery disease. LÄS MER
