Diabetes Mellitus: Long-term Prognostic Value of Whole-Body MR Imaging for the Occurrence of Cardiac and Cerebrovascular Events

TL;DR: Initial data indicate that disease burden as assessed with whole-body MR imaging confers strong prognostic information in patients with diabetes mellitus, also beyond clinical characteristics as well as individual cardiac or cerebrovascular MR findings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Left Main Coronary Artery Compression Syndrome Evaluation With 64-Slice Cardiac Multidetector Computed Tomography

TL;DR: A 28-year-old man presented to the emergency department with progressive shortness of breath complicated by large hemoptysis, and was transferred to coronary care, where echocardiography demonstrated a persistent ductus arteriosus (PDA) measuring 0.9×2.0 cm with a right-to-left shunt consistent with Eisenmenger syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of aortic valve calcification to the presence, extent, and composition of coronary artery plaque burden: from the Rule Out Myocardial Infarction using Computer Assisted Tomography (ROMICAT) trial.

TL;DR: Aortic valve calcification is associated with the presence and greater extent of coronary artery plaque burden and may be part of the later stages of the atherosclerosis process, as its relation is strongest with calcified plaque, less with mixed plaque, and nonsignificant with noncalcified plaque.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonobstructive Coronary Artery Disease by Coronary CT Angiography Improves Risk Stratification and Allocation of Statin Therapy

TL;DR: In this article, the authors determined the pooled hazard ratio of nonobstructive CAD for ASCVD events from published studies and incorporated this information into the ACC/AHA pooled cohort equation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of a Novel CD206+ Macrophage-Specific Arterial Imaging Strategy in HIV-Infected Individuals.

TL;DR: These first-in-human data introduce a novel macrophage-specific arterial imaging technique in HIV, and colocalization between technetium Tc 99m tilmanocept (99mTc-tilmanOcept) and CD206+ macrophages ex vivo is demonstrated.
