This book provides a comprehensive survey of the pharmacokinetic
models used for the quantitative interpretation of
contrast-enhanced imaging. It discusses all the available imaging
technologies and the problems related to the calibration of the
imaging system and accuracy of the estimated physiological
parameters. Enhancing imaging modalities using contrast agents has
opened up new opportunities for going beyond morphological
information and enabling minimally invasive assessment of tissue
and organ functionality down to the molecular level. In combination
with mathematical modeling of the contrast agent kinetics,
contrast- enhanced imaging has the potential to provide clinically
valuable additional information by estimating quantitative
physiological parameters. The book presents the broad spectrum of
diagnostic possibilities provided by quantitative contrast-enhanced
imaging, with a particular focus on cardiology and oncology, as
well as novel developments in the area of quantitative molecular
imaging along with their potential clinical applications. Given the
variety of available techniques, the choice of the appropriate
imaging modality and the most suitable pharmacokinetic model is
often challenging. As such, the book provides a valuable technical
guide for researchers, clinical scientists, and experts in the
field who wish to better understand and properly apply
tracer-kinetic modeling for quantitative contrast-enhanced imaging.
This book provides a comprehensive but concise overview of
noncompaction cardiomyopathy. Information on congestive heart
failure, thromboembolic events, (potentially lethal) arrhythmias,
and sudden cardiac death is presented. Topics covered include the
use of modern imaging modalities, such as contrast echocardiography
and magnetic resonance imaging in relation to noncompaction
cardiomyopathy treatment. Noncompaction Cardiomyopathy is a
critical resource for all medical professionals managing these
patients, including clinicians in cardiology, electrophysiology,
clinical and molecular genetics, pediatrics, pathology, neurology
and general practitioners.
