Three-Dimensional Volumetric Assessment of Diastolic Function by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging: The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA)

Arq. bras. cardiol; 108 (6), 2017
Abstract Background: Cardiac Magnetic Resonance is in need of a simple and robust method for diastolic function assessment that can be done with routine protocol sequences. Objective: To develop and validate a three-dimensional (3D) model-based volumetric assessment of diastolic function using cardiac ...

Neurografía por resonancia magnética para la identificación de la neuralgia del nervio pudendo
Magnetic resonance neurography for the identification of pudendal neuralgia

Medicina (B.Aires); 77 (3), 2017
La neuralgia del nervio pudendo (NP) es una entidad poco estudiada por imágenes. Se reconocen varias causas, tales como compresión a través de su paso por estructuras ligamentarias; estiramiento por partos laboriosos; lesiones secundarias a cirugías rectales, perineales, urológicas y ginecológicas,...

Paquimeningitis asociada a enfermedad por IgG4
Pachymeningitis associated with IgG4 disease

Medicina (B.Aires); 77 (3), 2017
La paquimeningitis hipertrófica es una enfermedad infrecuente. Puede ser idiopática, secundaria a infección o enfermedad oncológica. Recientemente se la describió asociada a la enfermedad por IgG4, pudiendo ser esta la causa de muchas clasificadas como idiopáticas. Se presenta el caso de un hombre ...

The role of PC-MRI in neurodegenerative diseases

Introduction: Neurodegenerative diseases, a major public health problem, could have a vascular origin. Phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (PC-MRI) enables reliable, non-invasive, and rapid measurements of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood flows, and evaluation of the mechanical coupling between ...

Solitary fibrous tumor of the lacrimal gland mimicking pleomorphic adenoma

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 80 (3), 2017
ABSTRACT Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare mesenchymal spindle-cell neoplasm commonly found in the pleura; it is rare in the orbit and extremely rare in the lacrimal gland. We herein report a case of SFT of the lacrimal gland that mimicked a pleo morphic adenoma. We discuss the clinical, radiologica...

¿Es realmente útil la cardiorresonancia magnética de estrés para detectar isquemia y predecir eventos en pacientes con distinto perfil de riesgo cardiovascular?

Arch. cardiol. Méx; 87 (2), 2017
Resumen: Objetivo: Evaluar la utilidad diagnóstica y pronóstica de la cardiorresonancia magnética de estrés (RMCE) en pacientes con distinto perfil de riesgo cardiovascular y la importancia del grado de hipoperfusión en la toma de decisiones clínicas. Método: Se analizaron los pacientes someti...

Do the radiological criteria with the use of risk factors impact the forecasting of abdominal neuroblastic tumor resection in children?

ABCD (São Paulo, Impr.); 30 (2), 2017
ABSTRACT Background: The treatment of neuroblastoma is dependent on exquisite staging; is performed postoperatively and is dependent on the surgeon's expertise. The use of risk factors through imaging on diagnosis appears as predictive of resectability, complications and homogeneity in staging. Aim: ...

Computerized cognitive training in children and adolescents with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder as add-on treatment to stimulants: feasibility study and protocol description

Abstract Background Cognitive training has received increasing attention as a non-pharmacological approach for the treatment of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children and adolescents. Few studies have assessed cognitive training as add-on treatment to medication in randomized placeb...

Myocardial Viability on Cardiac Magnetic Resonance

Arq. bras. cardiol; 108 (5), 2017
Abstract The study of myocardial viability is of great importance in the orientation and management of patients requiring myocardial revascularization or angioplasty. The technique of delayed enhancement (DE) is accurate and has transformed the study of viability into an easy test, not only for the detec...
