Real-time myocardial perfusion contrast echocardiography and regional wall motion abnormalities after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Clinical article.

30 Oct 2009 OBJECT: The pathophysiology of myocardial dysfunction after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) remains unclear. Using myocardial real-time perfusion contrast echocardiography (RTP-CE), the authors evaluated microvascular function in patients with acute ... Read more...

Improved myocardial perfusion and thickening after off-pump revascularization: 5-year follow-up.

30 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Late improvements in myocardial perfusion and thickening after off-pump revascularization were evaluated during a 5-year follow-up by myocardial single photon emission computed tomography. METHODS: Between 2001 and 2003, 68 patients who ... Read more...

Flow-targeted inversion-prepared b-TFE coronary MR angiography: initial results in patients.

12 Oct 2009 PURPOSE: Visualization of coronary blood flow in the right and left coronary system in volunteers and patients by means of a modified inversion-prepared bright-blood coronary magnetic resonance angiography (cMRA) sequence. MATERIALS AND METHODS: ... Read more...
