Despite significant advances, rejection and cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) remain impediments to long-term survival. Early detection is paramount to treatment of both rejection and CAV. Therefore, heart transplant (HT) patients are routinely monitored for signs of graft dysfunction.
To use structure-function cardiac MRI in the evaluation of relationships between donor and heart transplantation (HTx) recipient characteristics and changes in cardiac tissue structure and function.
19 Δεκ 2019 · Pearson correlation analyses were performed between continuous characteristic variables (age, height, weight, BMI, and cold ischemia time during transplantation) and cardiac MRI measures (LV mass, stroke volume, cardiac output, ejection fraction, T2, T1, ECV, myocardial velocities, and twist).
19 Δεκ 2020 · Purpose: To use structure-function cardiac MRI in the evaluation of relationships between donor and heart transplantation (HTx) recipient characteristics and changes in cardiac tissue structure and function. HTx candidates and donor hearts are evaluated for donor-recipient matches to improve survival, but the impact of donor and recipient ...
8 Φεβ 2019 · This article highlights expected imaging findings after transplant surgery and procedure- and treatment-related complications in the early, intermediate, and late posttransplant periods, to help radiologists identify imaging abnormalities, guide therapy, and affect patient outcomes.
The proposed donor heart selection guidelines provide evidence-based and expert-consensus recom-mendations for the selection of donor hearts following brain death. These recommendations were com-piled by an international panel of experts based on an extensive literature review. J Heart Lung Transplant 2023;42:7−29
27 Αυγ 2018 · The diagnosis of acute rejection in cardiac transplant recipients requires invasive technique with endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) which has risks and limitations. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) with T2 and T1 mapping is a promising technique for characterizing myocardial tissue.
