September scientific article now available to download: Title: Motion in myocardial perfusion PET Author(s): Dr Ian Armstrong Hospital: Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust Myocardial perfusion PET is a well established technique for assessing obstructive coronary artery and coronary microvascular diseases. It has been shown to be superior to SPECT imaging in image quality, prognostic information, scan time and lower radiation dose for both the patient and operators. Through the creation of dynamic images, PET also provides the ability to assess myocardial blood flow. Several radionuclide tracers are used including rubidium-82, nitrogen-13 ammonia and oxygen-15 water. Rubidium-82 is the most common tracer used worldwide due to convenient on-site generator production. Cardiac PET is widespread throughout the United States, where it is performed in more than 300 centres, whereas in the UK it is a little more modest with only four locations currently performing this technique – all of which use rubidium-82 as the tracer. https://lnkd.in/dtzjhChj #RADMagazine #medicalimaging #healthcare #medical #radiology #PETscanning

???For Dominik Doppler, VP of Sales and Marketing at SCHILLER AG, answering the question, "Why should you consider SCHILLER as an option for your medical equipment?" is simple: 50 years of experience and our heritage of quality back us up.

Dr. Babar S. Hasan shared his insights at the 2nd Annual Pakistan Cardiac Imaging Summit, emphasizing the essential role of cardiac imaging in complex cases for successful outcomes. He highlighted that in cardiovascular sciences, imaging serves as the backbone, providing critical information necessary for effective diagnosis and treatment planning. Dr. Hasan's views underscored the paramount importance of advanced imaging technologies in advancing cardiovascular care. #NICVD #CardiacImaging #PCIS2024

Over the recent weeks, two scientific publications confirmed what we had previously deemed highly probable: #Photoncounting CT changes the management and treatment decisions of cardiac patients. Moritz Halfmann et al of University Medical Center Mainz showed that using the high spatial resolution of Quantum HD Cardiac on NAEOTOM Alpha led to reclassification of 54% of patients to a lower CAD-RADS category. https://lnkd.in/dWdHrQqz Judit Simon MD PhD et al of Semmelweis University reported that using the aforementioned Quantum HD Cardiac scan mode - compared to conventional whole heart coverage detector CT - reduced the referral rate in CAD patients to the cathlab by 50%. https://lnkd.in/dijxd3xc I talked to radiologists of both hospitals and was happy to hear that not only has this change in patient management been adopted in daily practice but also that the interventional cardiology departments are highly supportive of this paradigm change. I am looking forward to the next logical step where the impact of this change in patient management on the overall healthcare costs (hospitals & insurers) shall be investigated. If you want to learn more about the "patient-management-changing-and-healthcare-cost-reducing" potential of NAEOTOM Alpha, find me at our booth at #ecr2024.

upBeat? Sparkles: Heart Fun Facts & Hidden Gems! ????? === Cardiac Catheterization and Coronary Angiography === It was in 1844 when Claude Bernard pioneered cardiac catheterization, recording intracardiac pressures and coining the term, laying the foundation for future innovations. The pivotal moment came in 1929 when Werner Forssmann performed the first human cardiac catheterization on himself, marking a bold step towards the development of coronary angiography. In 1941 André Cournand and Dickinson Richards, utilized the cardiac catheter as a diagnostic tool for the first time, earning a Nobel Prize in 1956 for their groundbreaking work. Rapid growth in coronary arteriography occurred in mid-1960s, with Mason Sones performing selective coronary arteriography in over 1,000 patients and Melvin Judkins perfecting the transfemoral approach in 1967. ?????? #CardiacCatheterization #CoronaryAngiography #MedicalInnovation #upBeat #MonitraHealth

Advance your cardiac imaging capabilities with CT 5300. Precise Cardiac retrospectively compensates for cardiac motion to improve visualisation of the coronary arteries during CT imaging. This improves diagnostic confidence in challenging patients with high heart rates. Discover more about why CT 5300 is built for cardiac: https://lnkd.in/e5vYbnyc #Philips #CT
