Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging for amyloidosis: The state-of-the-art.
(2019-02)
Amyloidosis results from insoluble precursor proteins being deposited in the extracellular compartment. The prognosis of the disease is predominantly determined by cardiac involvement due to amyloid accumulation that ...
Authors' Reply to Kindermann et al.'s Comment on: "Athlete's Heart: Diagnostic Challenges and Future Perspectives".
(Springer Link, 2019-01-08)
We thank Prof. Wilfried Kindermann and colleagues for their interest in our publication [1] and for the important comments raised in their letter [2]. They understandably underscore the importance of a step-wise approach ...
Prevalence and Clinical Relevance of Extracardiac Findings in Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
(2019-01)
PURPOSE: To assess the prevalence of extracardiac findings (ECF) during cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) examinations and their downstream effect on clinical management. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively ...
Automated localization and quality control of the aorta in cine CMR can significantly accelerate processing of the UK Biobank population data.
(Public Library of Science, 2019-02-14)
INTRODUCTION: Aortic distensibility can be calculated using semi-automated methods to segment the aortic lumen on cine CMR (Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance) images. However, these methods require visual quality control ...
High Throughput Computation of Reference Ranges of Biventricular Cardiac Function on the UK Biobank Population Cohort
(Springer, Cham, 2019-02-14)
© 2019, Springer Nature Switzerland AG. The exploitation of large-scale population data has the potential to improve healthcare by discovering and understanding patterns and trends within this data. To enable high throughput ...
Validation of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance-Derived Equation for Predicted Left Ventricular Mass Using the UK Biobank Imaging Cohort: Tool for Donor-Recipient Size Matching.
(2019-12)
BACKGROUND: Current guidance from International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation recommends using body weight for donor-recipient size matching for heart transplantation. However, recent studies have shown that ...
