Open AccessMolecular magnetic resonance imaging of activated platelets allows noninvasive detection of early myocarditis in mice
MRI sensitivity for diagnosis and localization of early myocarditis is limited, although it is of central clinical interest. The aim of this project was to test a contrast agent targeting activated platelets c...

Segmental biventricular analysis of myocardial function using high temporal and spatial resolution tissue phase map**
Myocardial dysfunction of the right ventricle (RV) is an important indicator of RV diseases, e.g. RV infarction or pulmonary hypertension. Tissue phase map** (TPM) has been widely used to determine function ...

Left ventricular regional myocardial motion and twist function in repaired tetralogy of Fallot evaluated by magnetic resonance tissue phase map**
We aimed to characterise regional myocardial motion and twist function in the left ventricles (LV) in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF) and preserved LV global function.

Open AccessA quantitative comparison of regional myocardial motion in mice, rabbits and humans using in-vivo phase contrast CMR
Genetically manipulated animals like mice or rabbits play an important role in the exploration of human cardiovascular diseases. It is therefore important to identify animal models that closely mimic physiolog...
