Myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) using combined computed tomography (CT) and single-photon emission CT (SPECT) systems plays an important role in the management of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).1–4 The method can be used to assess myocardial perfusion and left ventricular function simultaneously. It is an especially valuable tool for assessing short-term risk of CAD, thus…

Since its introduction in 1993,1 contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (ce-MRA) has been considered the technique of choice for angiographic examination of most regions of the body. This is because of several technical and clinical advantages in comparison with non-contrast-enhanced MRA (nce-MRA) imaging. In this article, we focus on patients with suspected peripheral arterial…

Recent developments in cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging have led to a tremendous breakthrough in functional imaging and tissue characterisation of the left ventricular (LV) myocardium. Over the past few decades, numerous studies have shown significant improvement in CMR imaging of acute myocardial ischaemia and myocardial infarction (MI). Advances in hardware, acquisition sequences and…

Women with angina but no obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) at coronary angiography have long been considered a low-risk population.1–3 Instead, data from the Women‘s ischaemia syndrome evaluation (WISE) study4 demonstrated that persistent chest pain (PChP) – also in the absence of CAD – is not a benign condition. These patients experienced major cardiovascular (CV) events, such as…

There are many things in life everybody wants more of, and this is particularly true for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The major challenge in the daily life of an MRI professional is gaining maximal image signal and contrast in a reasonable amount of time. The application of gadolinium (Gd)-based MR contrast material has offered contrast features in MRI that have been used and appreciated for…

Coronary bifurcation lesions with involvement of a significant side branch are a frequent occurrence. The Rapamycin-Eluting Stent Evaluated At Rotterdam Cardiology Hospital (RESEARCH) study showed that systematic use of drug-eluting stents (DES) resulted in an increase from 8% to 16% in the number of bifurcation lesions being stented over a one-year period. 1 This high incidence of coronary…
