Disección espontánea de arterias viscerales: reporte de una serie de casos
(Sociedad Médica de Santiago, 2019)
Background:
Spontaneous dissections of visceral arteries are rare and usually secondary to other disease. There is paucity of information about their natural course.
Aim:
To describe the imaging, clinical characteristics ...
Association between spontaneous internal carotid artery dissection and perivascular adipose tissue attenuation on computed tomography angiography
(2023)
Background: Spontaneous cervical artery dissection (sCAD) is a leading cause of ischemic stroke in young patients. Studies using high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography have suggested ...
Classification of calcified regions in atherosclerotic lesions of the carotid artery in computed tomography angiography images
(Springer, 2020-04-01)
The identification of atherosclerotic plaque components, extraction and analysis of their morphology represent an important role towards the prediction of cardiovascular events. In this article, the classification of regions ...
Evaluation of subclinical atherosclerosis by computed tomography coronary angiography and its association with risk factors in familial hypercholesterolemia
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2010)
Background: Increasing age and cholesterol levels, male gender, and family history of early coronary heart disease (CHD) are associated with early onset of CHD in familial hypercholesterolemia (FH). Objective: Assess ...
Effect of Intracycle Motion Correction Algorithm on Image Quality and Diagnostic Performance of Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography in Patients with Suspected Coronary Artery Disease
(Elsevier, 2015-01)
Rationale and objectives: We sought to explore the impact of intracycle motion correction algorithms (MCA) in the interpretability and diagnostic accuracy of computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) performed in ...
Takayasu Arteritis: Recent Developments
(Springer, 2019)
Purpose of Review: Takayasu arteritis (TA) is a granulomatous inflammatory disorder that affects large vessels, especially aorta and its proximal branches. Its diagnosis can be extremely challenging due to the non-specificity ...
Substantial iodine volume load reduction in CT angiography with dual-energy imaging: insights from a pilot randomized study
(Springer, 2014-12)
We explored whether dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) can allow a significant reduction in iodinated contrast volume during computed tomography angiography (CTA) without hampering image quality or assessibility. We ...
