Filter by:In 2014 radiological lesions at one or more semicircular canals (SCC) were described using CT & MR imaging in subjects presenting advanced hearing and vestibular deterioration caused by the p.P51S mutation in COCH. Similar lesions were also described in other non-genetic advanced hearing and vestibular deterioration as well. With this prospective observational study it is the purpose to inventory imaging results of candidates for cochlear implantation which are routinely performed during the preoperative work up, since these patient present severe hearing impairment at both ears. A considerable part of them might present vestibular deterioration as well. It is the purpose to detect possible presence of these SCC lesions on CT and MR in this population and the prevalence of these lesions compared to DFNA9 patients.
This pilot project aims to establish evidence to investigate whether a virtual reality intervention can be implemented to reduce anxiety and efficiently prepare children for non-sedated MRI assessments. The study consists of comparing the current modes of delivery though a mock behavioural assessment and inquiry into the acceptability and utility of the intervention components, including potential barriers to adherence or behavioural change that could have unintended consequences.
This is a prospective, observational study designed to evaluate the role of dynamic computed tomographic perfusion (CTP) and Computed Tomography-Derived Fractional Flow Reserve (CT-FFR) in patients presenting with chest discomfort.Patients with lesions greater than 50% and who meet all other inclusion/exclusion criteria will qualify to be a subject in the CTP study /CT-FFR 49. Those who agree to participate will be scheduled to have the CT-FFR and CTP performed within sixty days of the initial Coronary CTA procedure. A CTA will be performed at rest for FFR. The patient will then take approximately a 30 min break. Regadenoson will then be administered and the dynamic CT procedure will be done for perfusion. If patients are deemed to be appropriate for invasive angiography by the referring physician, coronary lesions between 40% and 80% will get a fractional flow measurement performed if indicated on a clinical basis. Stenosis in vessels less than 1.5 mm will be excluded from the study. The CT-FFR and CTP will be performed in these patients within 60 days of index coronary angiography.
This study aims to assess the use of low dose CT reconstructed with MBIR for the assessment of patients with inflammatory bowel disease who need CT to assess for disease complications.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) infusion via hepatic artery in the treatment of liver cirrhosis.
