Magnetization-transfer flow-independent dark-blood delayed enhancement cardiac MRI optimizes discrimination of ST-elevation myocardial infarct borders.
Journal Article Eur Radiol · June 2025 OBJECTIVES: To prospectively compare image quality and infarct sizing methods between magnetization-transfer "flow-independent dark-blood delayed enhancement" (MT-FIDDLE) and standard "bright-blood"-late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiac-magnetic-resona ...

Journal Article JACC Cardiovasc Imaging · May 2025 BACKGROUND: Current treatment paradigms assume aortic regurgitation (AR) patients to be a homogenous population, but varied courses of disease progression and outcomes are observed clinically. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to first use unsupervised ...

Journal Article Eur Heart J Cardiovasc Imaging · March 3, 2025 AIMS: More than 90% of patients with left bundle branch block (LBBB) and reduced left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction have LV dyssynchrony and a high probability of response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). A subgroup of patients with non-spe ... Full text Link to item CiteRecent Grants
