Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is most frequently detected at an advanced stage. Such
late detection restricts treatment options and contributes to a dismal 5-year survival rate of 3–…

High-resolution (HR) magnetic resonance images (MRI) provide detailed anatomical
information important for clinical application and quantitative image analysis. However, HR MRI …

Despite considerable research efforts, pancreatic cancer is associated with a dire prognosis
and a 5-year survival rate of only 10%. Early symptoms of the disease are mostly nonspecific…

In five healthy subjects and 18 patients, cine magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the heart
was performed with a true fast imaging with steady-state precession (FISP) sequence. …

Cardiovascular imaging has largely focused on identifying structural, functional, and metabolic
changes in the heart. The ability to reliably assess disease activity would have major …

Epicardial fat, the local visceral fat depot enclosed by the visceral pericardial sac, surrounds
the coronary arteries for most of their course, and may contribute to the development of …

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging has become the gold standard for evaluating
myocardial function, volumes, and scarring. Additionally, cardiovascular magnetic resonance …

The need for ECG gating presents many difficulties in cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI).
Real‐time imaging techniques eliminate the need for ECG gating in cine CMRI, but …

Quantitative cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging can be used to characterize
fibrosis, oedema, ischaemia, inflammation and other disease conditions. However, the …

Magnetic resonance image (MRI) in high spatial resolution provides detailed anatomical
information and is often necessary for accurate quantitative analysis. However, high spatial …
