Abstract

To evaluate the feasibility of using real-time magnetic resonance (MR) fluoroscopic guidance to place a stent-graft mounted on a guide wire in a nonrigid aortic phantom. Real-time fast low-angle shot and true fast imaging with steady-state precession MR imaging sequences were used for device tracking. A modified fiber-optic guide wire and catheter embedded with titanium oxide in predefined positions were used for navigation in a homemade silicone thoracic aortic phantom. Susceptibility artifacts caused by the modified guide wire and catheters mounted in the descending thoracic aorta of the phantom were found to enable adequate determination of the guide wire position in relation to the surrounding anatomy and to cause no image distortion. Real-time MR imaging enabled visualization of both the vessel lumen and the delivery system with the mounted stent-graft, providing an image quality sufficient for successful localization of the lesion and deployment of the stent-graft. The results of this study prove the possibility of passive guidance in MR imaging-guided stent placement in vitro. The modified guide wire can be used with interventional commercial catheters and recent implant devices with selective tracking in the surrounding...Continue Reading

Aortic Aneurysm

An aortic aneurysm is the weakening and bulging of the blood vessel wall in the aorta. This causes dilatation of the aorta, which is usually asymptomatic but carries the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. Find the latest research on aortic aneurysms here.

Cardiac Aneurysm

Aneurysm refers to a bulge of the wall or lining of a vessel commonly occurring in the blood vessels at the base of the septum or within the aorta. In the heart, it usually arises from a patch of weakened tissue in a ventricular wall, which swells into a bubble filled with blood. Discover the latest research on cardiac aneurysm here.

Cajal Bodies & Gems

Cajal bodies or coiled bodies are dense foci of coilin protein. Gemini of Cajal bodies, or gems, are microscopically similar to Cajal bodies. It is believed that Cajal bodies play important roles in RNA processing while gems assist the Cajal bodies. Find the latest research on Cajal bodies and gems here.

Aneurysm

Aneurysms are outward distensions or bulges that occurs in a weakened wall of blood vessels. Discover the latest research on aneurysms here.
