The use of Gd-DTPA as a marker of myocardial viability in reperfused acute myocardial infarction
At present, accurate assessment of the extent of myocardial viability after acute myocardial infarction is limited due to the spatial resolution of currently available imaging modalities. MR cardiac imaging, w...

Open AccessCell tracking and therapy evaluation of bone marrow monocytes and stromal cells using SPECT and CMR in a canine model of myocardial infarction
The clinical application of stem cell therapy for myocardial infarction will require the development of methods to monitor treatment and pre-clinical assessment in a large animal model, to determine its effect...

Open AccessComparison of the myocardial clearance of endothelial progenitor cells injected early versus late into reperfused or sustained occlusion myocardial infarction
Stem cell transplantation following AMI has shown promise for the repair or reduction of the amount of myocardial injury. There is some evidence that these treatment effects appear to be directly correlated to...

Open AccessAssessment of intramyocardial hemorrhage with dark-blood T2*-weighted cardiovascular magnetic resonance
Intramyocardial hemorrhage (IMH) within myocardial infarction (MI) is associated with major adverse cardiovascular events. Bright-blood T2*-based cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has emerged as the refe...
