Abstract Phantoms with known T $ _ {1} $ and T $ _ {2} $ values that are prepared using
solutions of easily accessible paramagnetic agents are commonly used in MRI imaging …

The use of contrast agents has added considerable value to the existing cardiac MRI toolbox
that can be used to study murine myocardial infarction, as it enables detailed in vivo …

Early measurements of tissue viability after myocardial infarction (MI) are essential for
accurate diagnosis and treatment planning but are challenging to obtain. Here, manganese …

Background—Gadolinium (Gd)-based delayed-enhancement MRI (DEMRI) identifies
nonviable myocardium but is nonspecific and may overestimate nonviable territory …

Purpose. To evaluate whether 3T clinical MRI with a small‐animal coil and gradient‐echo
(GE) sequence could be used to characterize long‐term left ventricular remodelling (LVR) …

Abstract Background Apelin-13 (A13) regulates cardiac homeostasis. However, the effects
and mechanism of A13 infusion after an acute myocardial injury (AMI) have not been …

Mapping longitudinal relaxation times in 3D is a promising quantitative and non‐invasive
imaging tool to assess cardiac remodeling. Few methods are proposed in the literature …

The aim of this study was to use manganese (Mn)‐enhanced MRI (MEMRI) to detect
changes in calcium handling associated with cardiac hypertrophy in a mouse model, and to …

Background A novel MRI technique, employing dual contrast manganese-enhanced MRI
(MEMRI) and delayed enhancement MRI (DEMRI), can evaluate the physiologically …

We developed a novel manganese (Mn2+) chelate for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
assessment of myocardial viability in acute and chronic myocardial infarct (MI) models, and …
