- 1From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) describes deep trabeculations in the left ventricular (LV) endocardium and a thinned epicardium. LVNC is seen both as a primary cardiomyopathy and as a secondary...
- 2From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Needle access or drainage of pericardial effusion, especially when small, entails risk of bystander tissue injury or operator uncertainty about proposed trajectories. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance...
- 3From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThis document is an update to the 2008 publication of the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (SCMR) Board of Trustees Task Force on Standardized Protocols. Since the time of the original publication, 3...
- 4From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Optimal ECG triggering is of paramount importance for correct blood flow quantification during cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR). However, optimal ECG triggering and therefore blood flow...
- 5From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Despite the survival benefit of implantable-cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs), the vast majority of patients receiving an ICD for primary prevention do not receive ICD therapy. We sought to assess the...
- 6From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground To predict the type and extent of CMR artifacts caused by commonly used pediatric trans-catheter devices at 1.5 T and 3 T as an aid to clinical planning and patient screening. Methods Eleven commonly...
- 7From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Cine cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is challenging in patients who cannot perform repeated breath holds. Real-time, free-breathing acquisition is an alternative, but image quality is typically...
- 8From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Visceral adiposity is increased in those with Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) and atherosclerotic disease burden. In this study we evaluate for associations between intra-thoracic fat volume (ITFV) and...
- 9From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Established heart failure in thalassaemia major has a poor prognosis and optimal management remains unclear. Methods A 1 year prospective study comparing deferoxamine (DFO) monotherapy or when...
- 10From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Analysis of left ventricular (LV) mechanical dyssynchrony may provide incremental prognostic information regarding cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) response in addition to QRS width alone. Our...
- 11From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Quantification of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) myocardial perfusion reserve (MPR) at 1.5 Tesla has been shown to correlate to invasive evaluation of coronary artery disease (CAD) and to yield...
- 12From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Three-directional phase velocity mapping (PVM) is capable of measuring longitudinal, radial and circumferential regional myocardial velocities. Current techniques use Cartesian k-space coverage and...
- 13From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedWhile cancer-free survival has improved over the past 20 years for many individuals with prostate, renal, breast, and hematologic malignancies, the increasingly recognized prevalence of cardiovascular (CV) events in...
- 14From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Pulmonary involvement, manifested as pulmonary arterial hypertension or pulmonary fibrosis, is the most common cause of death in systemic sclerosis (SSc). We aimed to explore the feasibility of detecting...
- 15From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe 16th Annual Scientific Sessions of the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (SCMR) took place in San Francisco, USA at the end of January 2013. With a faculty of experts from across the world, this congress...
- 16From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground The effects on left and right ventricular (LV, RV) volumes during physical exercise remains controversial. Furthermore, no previous study has investigated the effects of exercise on longitudinal...
- 17From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground To overcome flow and electrocardiogram-trigger artifacts in cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR), we have implemented a cardiac and respiratory self-gated cine ultra-short echo time (UTE) sequence. We...
- 18From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Quantitative T1-mapping is rapidly becoming a clinical tool in cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) to objectively distinguish normal from diseased myocardium. The usefulness of any quantitative...
- 19From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedCardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) studies in patients with pacemakers or implantable cardioverter/defibrillators (ICD) are increasingly required in daily clinical practice. Therefore, in the last years the...
- 20From: Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance. (Vol. 15, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Due to the limited data available in literature, the aim of this multi-centre study was to prospectively compare in thalassemia major (TM) patients the efficacy of combined deferiprone (DFP) and...
