A new heart scan is faster and has lower radiation exposure than MRI and invasive angiography, according to a study published in Circulation: Cardiovascular Imaging. Researchers compared three ...

A new type of imaging technique using an MRI device can detect most diseased coronary arteries, potentially sparing many heart patients a more invasive, expensive and uncomfortable test, researchers ...

In patients with stable angina, two strategies are often used to guide revascularization: one involves myocardial-perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and the other involves ...

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has evolved from an effective research tool into a clinically proven, safe and comprehensive imaging modality. It provides anatomic and functional ...

Patterns of persistent risk often emerge in these allegations. One common theme is test selection: A surprising number of ...

Magnetic resonance imaging is increasingly used to avoid the radiation used in computed tomographic scanning. Gadolinium contrast medium allows vascular imaging without the nephrotoxic effects ...
