To detect in-stent restenosis among patients with coronary stents, a new study shows the potential for improved diagnostic accuracy by adding computed tomography perfusion imaging to coronary CT ...

September 11, 2009 — A novel cardiac computed-tomography (CT) protocol that combines stress and rest myocardial perfusion imaging with coronary CT angiography in a single test can identify perfusion ...

CT perfusion and angiography failed to meet sensitivity and specificity thresholds to determine brain death. Neither should be used as standalone tests to establish death by neurologic criteria, the ...

(HealthDay News) — For patients suspected of having hemodynamically significant coronary stenosis, exercise computed tomography (CT) myocardial perfusion imaging is feasible and accurate, according to ...

A phase 1 dose-escalation study of XL518, a potent MEK inhibitor administered orally daily to subjects with solid tumors ...

Coronary artery disease is the leading cause of death globally. One of the most common tools used to diagnose and monitor heart disease, myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) by single photon emission ...

A research team from Lille University Hospital in France has recently demonstrated that dual-energy computed tomography lung perfusion can provide valuable additional information for standard CT scans ...
