Journal ArticleDOI
Neurohumoral Features of Myocardial Stunning Due to Sudden Emotional Stress
Ilan S. Wittstein,David R. Thiemann,Joao A.C. Lima,Kenneth L. Baughman,Steven P. Schulman,Gary Gerstenblith,Katherine C. Wu,Jeffrey J. Rade,Trinity J. Bivalacqua,Hunter C. Champion +9 more
TL;DR: Emotional stress can precipitate severe, reversible left ventricular dysfunction in patients without coronary disease andaggerated sympathetic stimulation is probably central to the cause of this syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnostic Performance of Coronary Angiography by 64-Row CT
Julie M. Miller,Carlos E. Rochitte,Marc Dewey,Armin Arbab-Zadeh,Hiroyuki Niinuma,Ilan Gottlieb,Narinder Paul,Melvin E. Clouse,Edward P. Shapiro,John Hoe,Albert C. Lardo,David E. Bush,Albert de Roos,Christopher Cox,J. A. Brinker,Joao A.C. Lima +15 more
TL;DR: Multidetector CT angiography accurately identifies the presence and severity of obstructive coronary artery disease and subsequent revascularization in symptomatic patients, and the negative and positive predictive values indicate that multidetctor CTAngiography cannot replace conventional coronary angiographic at present.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prognostic Significance of Microvascular Obstruction by Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction
Katherine C. Wu,Elias A. Zerhouni,Robert M. Judd,Carlos H. Lugo-Olivieri,Lili A. Barouch,Steven P. Schulman,Roger S. Blumenthal,Joao A.C. Lima +7 more
TL;DR: After infarction, MRI-determined microvascular obstruction predicts more frequent cardiovascular complications, and infarct size determined by MRI also relates directly to long-term prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarctions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of coronary artery disease by cardiac computed tomography : A scientific statement from the american heart association committee on cardiovascular imaging and intervention, council on cardiovascular radiology and intervention, and committee on cardiac imaging, council on clinical cardiology
Matthew J. Budoff,Stephan Achenbach,Roger S. Blumenthal,J. Jeffrey Carr,Jonathan G. Goldin,Philip Greenland,Alan D. Guerci,Joao A.C. Lima,Daniel J. Rader,Geoffrey D. Rubin,Leslee J. Shaw,Susan E. Wiegers +11 more
TL;DR: The utility and limitations of generations of cardiac CT systems are reviewed, with emphasis on CT measurement of CAD and coronary artery calcified plaque (CACP) and noncalcified plaque.
Journal ArticleDOI
Noninvasive myocardial strain measurement by speckle tracking echocardiography: validation against sonomicrometry and tagged magnetic resonance imaging.
Brage H. Amundsen,Thomas Helle-Valle,Thor Edvardsen,Hans Torp,Jonas Crosby,Erik Lyseggen,Asbjørn Støylen,Halfdan Ihlen,Joao A.C. Lima,Otto A. Smiseth,Stig A. Slørdahl +10 more
TL;DR: Speckle tracking echocardiography provides accurate and angle-independent measurements of LV dimensions and strains and has potential to become a clinical bedside tool for quantifying myocardial strain.
