Cardiac toxicity is one of the most concerning side effects of anti-cancer therapy. The gain in
life expectancy obtained with anti-cancer therapy can be compromised by increased …

As a consequence of improved technology, there is growing clinical interest in the use of
multi-detector row computed tomography (MDCT) for non-invasive coronary angiography …

Rationale: Cell dose and concentration play crucial roles in phenotypic responses to cell-
based therapy for heart failure. Objective: To compare the safety and efficacy of 2 doses of …

Background Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is one of the most successful heart
failure therapies to emerge in the last 25 years and is applicable to∼ 25–30% of patients …

In view of the commercial success of integrated PET/CT scanners, there is an increasing
interest in comparable SPECT/CT systems. SPECT in combination with CT enables a direct …

A substantial proportion of patients with acute myocardial infarction develop clinical heart
failure, which remains a common and major healthcare burden. It has been shown that in …

Positron emission tomography (PET) is a powerful, quantitative imaging modality that has
been used for decades to noninvasively investigate cardiovascular biology and physiology …

Purpose To develop a cardiac computed tomographic (CT) method with which to determine
extracellular volume (ECV) fraction, with cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) imaging as the …

Myocardial fibrosis, seen in ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathies, is associated with
adverse cardiac outcomes. Noninvasive imaging plays a key role in early identification and …

We aimed to evaluate the feasibility of diagnosing coronary stenosis and myocardial
ischemia with a single dual-energy CT (DECT) acquisition. Thirty-five patients underwent …
