The diagnostic value of gadolinium-DTPA (diethylenetriamine penta-acetic acid) enhanced magnetic resonance imaging in patients treated by thrombolysis for acute myocardial infarction was assessed in 27 consecutive patients who had a first acute myocardial infarction (14 anterior, 13 inferior) and
BACKGROUND
(18)F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) is assumed to be the most useful method for evaluating the viability of the myocardium. However, there are few reports regarding serial changes in (18)F-FDG-PET images of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We evaluated
BACKGROUND
Intracoronary radiation therapy (IRT) prevents recurrent in-stent restenosis, but its long-term safety and efficacy remain uncertain. In the present study, the long-term clinical outcome of IRT using the rhenium-188 ((188)Re)-filled balloon system was evaluated.
RESULTS
After successful
Present study was undertaken to evaluate the protective effect of 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-β-d-glucopyranose (PGG) against transient global ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced brain injury in rats. Sixty minutes of global ischemia, followed by 24h of reperfusion caused significant alterations in
We investigated the 2-year clinical follow-up results as well as 6-month angiographic and clinical follow-up results of intracoronary radiation therapy using a rhenium-188-diethylene triamine penta-acetic acid ((188)Re-DTPA)-filled balloon system. The study comprised of 161 patients with significant
