A focused cardiac ultrasound performed by an emergency physician is becoming part of the standard assessment of patients in a variety of clinical situations. The development of inexpensive, portable handheld devices promises to make point-of-care ult...
Ultrasound is one of the most important examinations for clinical diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases. The speed of image movements driven by the frequency of the beating heart is faster than that of other organs. This particularity of echocardiogra...
PURPOSE: Ropinirole is an antiparkinsonian drug and has recently been suggested to be effective in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. It is expected that ropinirole prescriptions will increase in the near future. However, the fatal concentration in bloo...

The deep neural network has achieved good results in medical image superresolution. However, due to the medical equipment limitations and the complexity of the human body structure, it is difficult to reconstruct clear cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR...
Drug-induced cardiotoxicity and hepatotoxicity are major causes of drug attrition. To decrease late-stage drug attrition, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries need to establish biologically relevant models that use phenotypic screening to dete...
For the clinical assessment of cardiac vitality, time-continuous tomographic imaging of the heart is used. To further detect e.g., pathological tissue, multiple imaging contrasts enable a thorough diagnosis using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). For...
PURPOSE: To develop and evaluate a novel and generalizable super-resolution (SR) deep-learning framework for motion-compensated isotropic 3D coronary MR angiography (CMRA), which allows free-breathing acquisitions in less than a minute.
