Balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) is an emerging treatment for patients with inoperable chronic thromboembolic hypertension (CTEPH). We report on a prospective series of 56 consecutive who underwent 266 BPA interventions (median, five per patient) at two German institutions. All comprehensive diagnostic work-up including right heart catheterisation baseline and 24 weeks after their last intervention. resulted in improvements WHO functional class, 6 min walk distance (mean change, +33 m),...
The number of conventional lymphographies has declined markedly since the introduction cross-sectional imaging techniques. Nevertheless, lymphography a high potential as reliable method to visualize and directly occlude lymphatic leaks. When used distinct radiological procedure with intention treat, this application can be described therapeutic lymphography.To investigate if is treat leakage when conservative treatment fails which parameters influence success rate.Between August 1995 January...
To evaluate deformation parameters of an endocardial, mid-myocardial, and epicardial myocardial layer in different transmurality infarction assess whether layer-specific analysis allows definition infarct transmurality. Fifty-six patients (mean age 55 ± 9 years, 38 men) with chronic ischaemic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction underwent two-dimensional echocardiography contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (ceMRI). The extent was determined as relative amount hyperenhancement by ceMRI...
Aims The aim of the study was to compare, in patients with chronic ischaemic cardiomyopathy, contrast-enhanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance (ce-CMR) imaging and a combined 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) 99mTc-sestamibi single-photon computed (SPECT) protocols for prediction functional recovery after revascularization, as assessed by cine CMR.
Die kardiale Schnittbilddiagnostik mit der Magnetresonanztomografie (MRT) und Computertomografie (CT) hat sich in letzten Dekade technisch rasant weiterentwickelt. Diese Verbesserungen die breite Verfügbarkeit moderner CT- MRT-Systeme haben dazu geführt, dass beide Verfahren jetzt regelmäßig klinischen Routine eingesetzt werden. Dieses deutsche Konsensuspapier wurde daher gemeinsam von Deutschen Gesellschaft für Kardiologie – Herz- Kreislaufforschung, Röntgengesellschaft Pädiatrische...
Lung cancer–associated pulmonary hypertension is associated with microenvironmental inflammation caused by tumor cell–immune cell cross-talk.
Background— Percutaneous cardiac interventions are currently performed under x-ray guidance. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been used to guide intravascular in the past, but mainly animals. Translation of MR-guided into humans limited by lack MR-compatible and safe equipment, such as MR wires with mechanical characteristics similar standard wires. The aim present study was evaluate safety efficacy a newly developed MR-safe compatible passive wire aiding swine model describe 2...
Abstract This research explores the acquisition and analysis of vibroacoustic signals generated during tissue-tool interactions, using a conventional aspiration needle enhanced with proximally mounted MEMS audio sensor, to extract temperature information. Minimally invasive monitoring is critical in thermotherapy applications, but current methods often rely on additional sensors or simulations typical tissue behavior. In this study, commercially available was inserted into water-saturated...
Chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) after transplantation is a common complication with poor prognosis. We assessed the utility of quantitative computed tomography (CT) for diagnosis, prediction, and discrimination CLAD phenotypes. retrospectively analyzed routine inspiratory expiratory CT scans from 78 patients at different time points transplantation. Mean density (MLD), parametric response mapping (PRM), percentage air trapping, airway wall morphology parameters were calculated...
Purpose: To assess the value of different image reconstruction algorithms for assessment left ventricular function using retrospectively ECG-gated multislice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) heart. Material and Methods: MSCT cine magnetic resonance (MR) imaging heart were performed in 15 patients. For MSCT, standard multisegmental with improved temporal resolution used. Standardized multiplanar reformats short axis long views reconstructed from data. End-systolic (ESV) end-diastolic volume...
