Aims The aim of this article is to evaluate the accuracy and reproducibility of two-dimesional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) for the estimation of left ventricular (LV) twist, using...

Myocardial first-pass perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance: history, theory, and current state of the art (2008)

Gerber, Bernhard L, Raman, Subha V, Nayak, Krishna, Epstein, Frederick H, Ferreira, Pedro, Axel, Leon, ...

Abstract In less than two decades, first-pass perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has undergone a wide range of changes with the development and availability of improved hardware,...

Release of cardiac bio-markers during high mechanical index contrast-enhanced echocardiography in humans (2007)

Vancraeynest, David, Kefer, Joelle, Hanet, Claude, Fillee, Catherine, Beauloye, Christophe, Pasquet, Agnes, ...

Background Recent experimental data have shown that the combined exposure of rodent hearts to high acoustic pressure and ultrasound contrast agents can induce vascular injury and cell damage. The aim...

Quantitative ischemia detection during cardiac magnetic resonance stress testing by use of fastHARP (2003)

Dara L. Kraitchman, Phd Smita Sampath, Mse Ernesto Castillo, Bernhard L. Gerber, Phd Jerry, L. Prince, ...

Background—Because ECG alterations caused by ischemia cannot be reliably detected in the high-field MRI environment, detection of wall motion abnormalities is often used to ensure patient safety...
