Brain computed tomography perfusion alterations in patients with Takayasu arteritis with steno-occlusive carotid arteries: a retrospective study

Cardiovascular Imaging

 7 min.

Takayasu arteritis (TAK) is a chronic inflammatory disease that predominantly affects the aorta and its major branches. Chronic vasculitis can result in stenosis, occlusion, dilation, or aneurysms. Stenotic lesions in the supra-aortic arteries and intracranial are common in TAK, often causing neurological...

Pitfalls of computed tomography angiography examination in veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation patients: a case report of a patient with cardiac rupture

Cardiovascular Imaging

 2 min.

V-A ECMO is an extracorporeal life support technique commonly used in patients with heart and lung failure [1, 2]. Contraindications for ECMO include severe aortic regurgitation and aortic dissection [3, 4]. Echocardiography is the most common examination used to diagnose aortic dissection and aortic...

Intravascular Ultrasound for the Prevention of Coronary Artery Occlusion During Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

Cardiovascular Imaging

 1 min.

Predicting coronary artery occlusion after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) usually relies on computed tomography angiography (CTA), with a low coronary artery take‐off and a small aortic root being the primary risk factors [1]. However, in some cases, the risk as determined by CTA...
