This book was released on 1996-03-13 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This cross-disciplinary book documents the key research challenges in the mathematical sciences and physics that could enable the economical development of novel biomedical imaging devices. It is hoped that the infusion of new insights from mathematical scientists and physicists will accelerate progress in imaging. Incorporating input from dozens of biomedical researchers who described what they perceived as key open problems of imaging that are amenable to attack by mathematical scientists and physicists, this book introduces the frontiers of biomedical imaging, especially the imaging of dynamic physiological functions, to the educated nonspecialist. Ten imaging modalities are covered, from the well-established (e.g., CAT scanning, MRI) to the more speculative (e.g., electrical and magnetic source imaging). For each modality, mathematics and physics research challenges are identified and a short list of suggested reading offered. Two additional chapters offer visions of the next generation of surgical and interventional techniques and of image processing. A final chapter provides an overview of mathematical issues that cut across the various modalities.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vascular diagnostics traditionally rely on x-ray angiography. This approach remains even today essential in the clinical work-up of patients with vascular pathology. Recently, however, newer imaging modalities have been intro duced to assess vascular disease. Among these the color Doppler flow and magnetic resonance imaging appear the most promising. Due to their noninva sive character both methods are ideally suited for screening as well as serial follow-up of vascular patients. The emergence of color Doppler flow and magnetic resonance vascular imaging coincides with new concepts in vascular medicine. Today, vascular prevention and percutaneous interventions are becoming the leading compo nents in modern vascular care. It is in this new and exciting environment of novel vascular concepts where the demand for reliable noninvasive vascular imaging is becoming a high priority. Color Doppler flow and magnetic reso nance vascular imaging are well on the way to satisfy this demand. This textbook provides the long awaited information on vascular imaging by color Doppler flow and magnetic resonance. The text covers the essentials of vascular anatomy, physiology and noninvasive imaging technology before providing a state-of-the-art review of their current clinical applications. All chapters are written by competent scientists and clinicians in a clear, conscise and yet thorough and exhaustive manner. The coherent and didactic composi tion of the textbook allows the reader an easy access to the elementary as well as the advanced principals and clinical applications of the modern noninvasive vascular imaging.

Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled Applications of Non-Invasive Vascular Imaging Techniques in Cardiovascular Risk Assessment and Management Submitted by Hu Rui for the Degree of Master of Philosophy at the University of Hong Kong in June, 2006 Non-invasive imaging techniques to detect atherosclerosis have emerged as useful tools for assessing the risk of cardiovascular diseases and surrogate endpoints for monitoring cardiovascular risk interventions. This thesis presents the results of two cross-sectional studies and one interventional study of the applications of vascular ultrasound and ophthalmoscope in assessing structure or function in macrovasculature and microvasculature. In the first cross-sectional study, the relative importance of diagnostic and prognostic values of non-invasive ultrasound assessment of carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) and brachial flow-mediated vasodilatation (FMD) were evaluated in 298 consecutive high-risk Chinese patients admitted for coronary angiography due to chest discomfort. The mean maximum of IMT (mmIMT), but not FMD, was found to be an independent predictor for the presence of the significant coronary artery disease (CAD) of >50% stenosis, and it closely correlated with the extent of CAD as assessed by Gensini angiographic score. During a median follow up of 16 months, 36 patients (12.8%) experienced spontaneous cardiovascular events (cardiovascular death, acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris and congestive heart failure). The impaired brachial FMD rather than the increased carotid mmIMT independently predicted the occurrence of spontaneous cardiovascular events. In patients without significant CAD, women were more likely than men to develop cardiovascular events. Therefore, endothelial function test of the brachial artery to measure FMD could be a useful tool to identify patients at risk of cardiovascular IIevents for intensive risk factor modification and vigilant follow up, especially in women without significant CAD. Moreover, impaired nitrate-mediated vasodilatation (NMD) was found to be a marker that could reflect the status of nitrate tolerance. Recent studies suggested that arteriolar retinopathy reflected systemic microvascular disease and was associated with increased risk of cardiovascular events. In the second cross-sectional study, the relationship between cardiovascular risk factors and arteriolar retinopathy as assessed by ophthalmoscope was investigated in 243 apparently healthy Chinese subjects during routine health checks. In this study, aging, hypertension, smoking and being overweight were identified as important risk factors for the presence of arteriolar retinopathy. Smoking was also associated with an increase of homocysteine in subjects with grade II retinopathy. However, smoking rather than hyperhomocysteinemia was found to be an independent predictor for the progression of arteriolar retinopathy. Finally, the short-term effect of aggressive cardiovascular risk factor modifications on endothelial function was studied in 25 CAD patients with concomitant hypertension and hypercholesterolemia. After 14 weeks of intensified blood pressure and lipid control with a combination with a calcium channel blocker and statin, there was a significant improvement in endothelial function. This finding provides further evidence to support aggressive risk factor modificat

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book-length reference to thoroughly describe diagnostic and therapeutic advances in the development of vascular radiology over the last decade The last ten years has seen vascular imaging of the central nervous system (CNS) evolve from fairly crude, invasive procedures to more advanced imaging methods that are safer, faster, and more precise—with computed tomographic (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging methods playing a special role in these advances. Vascular Imaging of the Central Nervous System is the first full-length reference text that shows radiologists—especially neuroradiologists—how to optimize the use of the many techniques available in order to increase the sensitivity and specificity of vascular imaging, thereby improving the diagnosis and treatment of individual patients. Each chapter is formatted carefully and divided into two essential parts: The first part describes the physical principles underlying each imaging technique, along potential associated artifacts and pitfalls; the second part addresses clinical applications and novel applications of each method. With a strong focus on the clinical application of each modality or technique in CNS radiology, this book provides in-depth chapter coverage of: • Ultrasound Vascular Imaging (UVI) • Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA) • Magnetic Resonance Vascular imaging (MRV) • Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) • Brain perfusion techniques: CT and MRI • Plaque imaging • Intravascular imaging • Pediatric vascular imaging Along with numerous illustrations and case studies, Vascular Imaging of the Central Nervous System: Physical Principles, Clinical Applications, and Emerging Techniques is an important book for those faced with choosing from the wide range of choices available for clinical practice.
