Purpose To establish normal ranges of left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular (RV) dimensions
as determined by the current pulse sequences in cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (…

Background: Studies in middle-age and older (masters) athletes with atherosclerotic risk
factors for coronary artery disease report higher coronary artery calcium (CAC) scores …

Purpose To compare right ventricular (RV) volume measurements and their reproducibility
between axial and short axis orientation acquisition techniques. Materials and Methods …

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging is currently the technique of choice for precise
measurements of ventricular volumes, function and left ventricular (LV) mass. The technique is 3D …

Background: Ischemia with no obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA) is common and
has an adverse prognosis. We set out to describe the natural history of symptoms and …

Background The dual-bolus protocol enables accurate quantification of myocardial blood
flow (MBF) by first-pass perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR). However, …

Objectives : This study sought to evaluate the prognostic usefulness of visual and quantitative
perfusion cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) ischemic burden in an unselected group of …

ECG criteria for left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) were mostly validated using left ventricular
mass (LVM) as measured by M-mode echocardiography. LVM as measured by cardiac MRI …

The assessment of regional left ventricular (LV) function with cardiac magnetic resonance (MR)
cine techniques requires a standardized section positioning. A simple selective short-…

Background: The radial long-axis orientation for the measurement of left ventricular (LV) volume
and mass has been shown to have advantages over the short-axis orientation. Previous …
