OBJECTIVES: Cerebral microbleeds (MBs) are known to be indicative of bleeding-prone microangiopathy and may predict incident intracerebral haemorrhage. However, there is controversy concerning the causal relationship... Read more...
Aug 2008 Inhibition of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) activity using angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) is beneficial in patient populations with left ventricular dysfunction or... Read more...
Technological advances in tissue Doppler imaging echocardiography.
Aug 2008 Tissue Doppler imaging is a recently introduced echocardiographic tool for measuring myocardial velocities. In this article the physical principles and different myocardial velocity imaging modalities are discussed.... Read more...

Technical Notes: usually dis of function: differentiate from CARDIOMYOPATHIES, dis of myocardial tissue (see note there); cyanotic heart dis is probably HEART DEFECTS, CONGENITAL & not CYANOSIS unless especially discussed; parasitic dis of the heart: coord PARASITIC DISEASES or specific parasitic dis (IM) with CARDIOMYOPATHIES (IM), not HEART DISEASES; heart dis, unspecified or specific, with rheumatic fever is probably RHEUMATIC HEART DISEASE: see note there
