Stress CMR significantly enhances diagnostic accuracy for chest pain without obstructive coronary artery disease, identifying ...

The new test measures a protein called cystatin C. The older and still standard method for assessing the health of the kidney ...

Chest pain may still be angina even when the main heart arteries look clear. Using cardiac stress MRI (a heart scan that measures blood flow with magnetic resonance imaging), testing uncovered small ...

Despite their widespread use in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD), current stress imaging modalities often have limited diagnostic accuracy, even with the addition of myocardial imaging ...

Of note, the iMODERN trial had also excluded people with a history of prior STEMI, chronic total occlusion, complex ...

Results from a large, multi-center study suggest that cardiac magnetic resonance, or CMR, has potential as a non-invasive, non-toxic alternative to stress echocardiograms, catheterizations and stress ...

This screening test measures how well blood flows through your heart. It may be used to diagnose coronary artery disease or to assess damage caused by a heart attack. Share on Pinterest JazzIRT/Getty ...

OAK BROOK, Ill.--A new cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique can noninvasively demonstrate blockage of the coronary arteries with high diagnostic accuracy, according to a study featured ...

Stress cardiac MRI exam results were associated with mortality in patients with known or suspected CAD, according to findings published in JAMA Cardiology. Robert M. Judd, PhD, co-director of the Duke ...

Papillary muscle scarring (papSCAR) as detected by dark blood delayed-enhancement cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) was ...
