Apparent Diffusion Coefficient is a Useful Biomarker for Monitoring Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy of Renal Ischemic-Reperfusion Injury
This study aimed to investigate the potential of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) for monitoring adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (ADMSC) therapy of renal ischemic-reperfusion injury (IRI).

Left ventricular myocardium segmentation on delayed phase of multi-detector row computed tomography
Advanced ischemic heart disease is usually accompanied by left ventricular (LV) myocardial volume loss and an abnormal enhancing pattern on delayed phase of multi-detector row computed tomography (MDCT). To as...

Partial ring artifact on cardiac CT: image presentation and clinical implication
In computed tomography (CT), the term “artifact” is applied to any systematic discrepancy between the CT numbers in the reconstructed image and the true attenuation coefficients of the object. A partial ring a...

Comprehensive evaluation of patients suspected with deep vein thrombosis using indirect CT venography with multi-detector row technology: from protocol to interpretation
With the increased availability of multi-detector row CT, indirect CT venography has become an important non-invasive image modality for patients with suspected deep vein thrombosis. Use of indirect CT venogra...

Global and regional wall motion abnormalities of pacing-induced heart failure assessed by multi-detector row CT: a patient and canine model study
This study used multi-detector row CT (MDCT) to evaluate the regional geometric parameters of left ventricle (LV) in patients and dogs after right ventricular apical (RVA) pacing. First, we measured and compar...

Comprehensive evaluation of CT pulmonary angiography for patients suspected of having pulmonary embolism
Recently, CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA), especially performed with multi-detector row CT, has become a key imaging modality for pulmonary embolism. However, CTPA that was performed under clinical suspicion o...

Pretreatment evaluation of distant-site status in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma: accuracy of whole-body MRI at 3-Tesla and FDG-PET-CT
We sought to prospectively evaluate the accuracy of 3.0-Tesla whole-body magnetic resonance imaging (WB-MRI) and integrated fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) ...

Left ventricular myocardial volumes measured during arterial and delayed phases of multidetector row computed tomography: a study on intra- and interobserver variability
To compare and correlate left ventricular (LV) myocardial volumes obtained using arterial and delayed phases of multidetector row computed tomography (CT) and evaluate their intra- and interobserver variation....

Correctness of multi-detector-row computed tomography for diagnosing mechanical prosthetic heart valve disorders using operative findings as a gold standard
The purpose was to compare the findings of multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) in prosthetic valve disorders using the operative findings as a gold standard. In a 3-year period, we prospectively enrolled...

Neonatal cardiac multidetector row CT: why and how we do it
Neonatal congenital heart disease is a most difficult area of diagnostic radiology because of the small patient body size and fast resting heart rate. Recently, the spatial and temporal resolution of multidete...

Vertebral and carotid artery anomalies in patients with aberrant right subclavian arteries
There is little published evidence regarding the patterns and prevalence of vertebral artery (VA) and common carotid artery (CCA) anomalies in patients with an aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSCA).

Visualization of neonatal coronary arteries on multidetector row CT: ECG-gated versus non-ECG-gated technique
Multidetector CT (MDCT) seems to be a promising tool for detection of neonatal coronary arteries, but whether the ECG-gated or non-ECG-gated technique should be used has not been established.

Using multidetector-row CT in neonates with complex congenital heart disease to replace diagnostic cardiac catheterization for anatomical investigation: initial experiences in technical and clinical feasibility
Echocardiography is the first-line modality for the investigation of neonatal congenital heart disease. Diagnostic cardiac catheterization, which has a small but recognized risk, is usually performed if echoca...
