    EUROPACE: A new image processing strategy for cardiac magnetic resonance imaging identifies culprit areas underlying complex tachycardias

    The method, validated in a multicenter study led by the Hospital Clínico San Carlos and the CNIC, enables preoperative planning based on a cardiac magnetic resonance imaging strategy that avoids the biases intrinsic to conventional image analysis

    JACC: CNIC and Philips develop ultrafast cardiac magnetic resonance technology that analyzes the heart in less than 1 minute

    Ultrafast cardiac magnetic resonance allows precise assessment of heart anatomy and function while reducing healthcare costs and increasing patient comfort
    En la imagen se muestra con un asterisco la presencia de una placa de aterosclerosis avanzada en la carótida común detectada por la técnica de ecografía 3D que no llega a ocasionar una obstrucción significativa de la luz del vaso (es <50%). Se puede comprobar con precisión su extensión en las 3 dimensiones del espacio lo que nos permite detectar cambios en su volumen para determinar si existe un avance de la enfermedad.
