  4. 2. Movement artifact reduction in laser Doppler blood flowmetry : myocardial perfusion applications

    Author : MG Daniel Karlsson; Karin Wårdell; Knut Kvernebo; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Laser Doppler perfusion monitoring (LDPM) and imaging (LDPI) enable assessment of tissue microvascular perfusion. The techniques are based on the Doppler broadening of the optical spectrum occurring when coherent laser light is scattered by moving red blood cells (RBC). READ MORE

  5. 3. Myocardial Perfusion and Function: Comparative assessment by ECG, SPECT and MRI

    Author : Eva Persson; Lund Klinisk fysiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; tomografi; medicinsk instrumentering; Physiology; radiologi; radiology; tomography; medical instrumentation; Klinisk fysiologi; Clinical physics; ST-segment deviation ; myocardial ischemia ; myocardial perfusion ; MRI; CMR; MPS; ECG; SPECT; Fysiologi; Cardiovascular system; myocardial function ; Kardiovaskulära systemet;

    Abstract : Evaluation of myocardial perfusion and function is important in management of patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease. This thesis focuses on the use of common diagnostic methods, myocardial perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography (MPS) and electrocardiography (ECG), to enhance and validate the diagnostic information.

  6. 4. Myocardial ischemia : As a risk indicator after an episode of unstable angina or non-Q-wave myocardial infarction

    Author : Hans Larsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : The diagnostic and prognostic value of different noninvasive tests were evaluated in men below 70 years of age admitted to the coronary care unit (CCU) with unstable coronary artery disease (CAD) i.e unstableangina or non-Q-wave myocardial infarction (Ml). A symptom limited exercise test (ET) was performed before discharge in 740 patients. READ MORE

  7. 5. Assessment of Myocardial Perfusion with Magnetic Resonance Imaging and an Intravascular Contrast Agent

    Author : Tomas Bjerner; Christine Lorenz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oncology; Magnetic resonance imaging; Intravascular contrast agents; Myocardial perfusion; Onkologi; Oncology; Onkologi; radiologi; Radiology;

    Abstract : The intravascular contrast agent NC100150 Injection (Clariscan™) was tested for its ability to induce signal intensity changes in myocardium, both in steady state and during first pass, and thereby demarcating non-perfused myocardium from perfused. Steady state: Ex vivo in pigs and when using 4 mg Fe/kg bodyweight (b.w. READ MORE
