Abstract:
The paranasal sinuses are a group of four paired air-filled spaces that exist superior and laterally to the nasal cavity. The sinuses are considered to provide an immunological role along with mucus production and air humidification. These sinus tissues are susceptible to obstructive malformation, inflammatory, infectious, and neoplastic processes, sometimes requiring surgical management. Surgical management has moved from open approaches to minimally invasive endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS). This surgical approach, although effective, has a reported complication rate of up to 5%, with cerebros

Abstract:
Coronary artery disease is one of the most pernicious diseases around the world and early identification of vascular disease can help to reduce morbidity and mortality. Assessment of the degree of vascular obstruction, or stenosis, is critical for classifying the risks of the future vascular events. Automatic detection and quantification of stenosis are important in assessing coronary artery disease from medical imagery, especially for disease progression. Important factors affecting the reproducability and robustness of accuarate quantification arise from the partial volume effect and other n

The objective of this work is to improve the diagnostic quality and reduce the radiation dose of computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) imaging by developing gating techniques based on signals derived from cardiac motion, rather than the currently used electrocardiogram (ECG), to more reliably trigger data acquisition during periods of cardiac quiescence. Because the ECG is an indication of electrical activity, it is a surrogate marker of the mechanical state of the heart.

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of mortality in Scotland (population 5.2 million), accounting for around 9000 deaths each year. Accurate diagnosis of the presence and extent of CAD is essential to guide management. Invasive coronary angiography (I-CA) is the gold standard diagnostic investigation but is associated with a small risk of significant vascular complications. Over the last decade multi-slice computed tomography coronary angiography (MSCT-CA) has emerged as a non-invasive imaging modality capable of visualising the coronary arteries.

Cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) has become an invaluable tool for the detection of cardiac disease. However, radiation brings potential risks of radiation-induced cancers.

Despite this, SVGs account for up to 80% of all grafts used in CABG. Consequently, the long-term patency of the saphenous vein (SV) is one of the most crucial challenges in cardiovascular surgery.

Introdução: A extensão da doença arterial coronariana (DAC) é um dos mais fortes preditores de eventos cardiovasculares adversos. Estratégias capazes de quantificar acuradamente a gravidade da doença coronária podem implicar em melhora na avalição prognóstica, na orientação terapêutica e na avaliação da progressão da doença. O ultrassom intracoronário (USIC) tornou-se o método padrão-ouro para quantificação da aterosclerose devido à sua habilidade em avaliar diretamente as placas ateroscleróticas. A angiotomografia coronária tem surgido como uma útil alternativa não invasiva ao USIC para avali

Introdução: A doença arterial coronariana (DAC) persiste com alta morbimortalidade. Várias modalidades diagnósticas não-invasivas estão disponíveis para sua avaliação, incluindo escore de cálcio coronariano (EC), angiotomografia coronariana (AngioTC) e tomografia por emissão de pósitrons com rubídio (PET-CT82Rb), com ótimas sensibilidade e especificidade. A integração destes métodos em um exame híbrido permite delinear extensão anatômica e funcional da aterosclerose, possibilitando diagnósticos mais corretos.

INTRODUÇÃO: A doença arterial coronária (DAC) é a principal causa de óbito em pacientes com insuficiência renal crônica (IRC), sendo o risco de morte por DAC maior do que na população geral. Os resultados dos exames não invasivos tradicionais para detecção de DAC têm apresentado acurácias conflitantes e, em geral, insuficientes para utilização clínica. A tomografia computadorizada com múltiplos detectores (TCMD) apresenta boa acurácia na detecção da DAC. Entretanto, a TCMD ainda não havia sido avaliada neste grupo de pacientes até recentemente.

Objetivo: testar e avaliar o ajuste de parâmetros de aquisição no bolus tracking (BT) para reduzir a dose de radiação nos exames de angiotomografias das artérias coronárias (ATCC), sem comprometer a qualidade da imagem.
