Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of Diabetes Mellitus on the Evaluation of Stable Chest Pain Patients: Insights From the PROMISE (Prospective Multicenter Imaging Study for Evaluation of Chest Pain) Trial.

TL;DR: Stable chest pain patients with and without diabetes mellitus have similar presentation and pretest likelihood of obstructive CAD; however, physicians perceive that patients with diabetes mell Titus have a higher pretestlihood of obstructives CAD, an assessment supported by increased risk of a positive NIT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Longitudinal Associations of Pericardial and Intrathoracic Fat With Progression of Coronary Artery Calcium (from the Framingham Heart Study).

TL;DR: Overall, both of the cardiac ectopic fat measures were longitudinally associated with CAC progression, and neither pericardial nor intrathoracic fat were associated withCAC incidence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticle uptake as noninvasive marker of aortic wall inflammation on MRI: proof of concept study.

TL;DR: This proof of concept study suggests that greater uptake of ferumoxytol in the aortic wall in cancer patients without visible atherosclerosis may be the expression of increased inflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coronary computed tomography angiography at 140 kV versus 120 kV: assessment of image quality and radiation exposure in overweight and moderately obese patients

TL;DR: In overweight and moderately obese patients, a tube potential of 120 kV may be sufficient for CCTA with diagnostic image quality, and effective radiation dose was compared between the two groups.
