It is still debated how breathing interacts with the CSF. New Phase contrast MRI sequence based on Echo Planar imaging (EPI-PC) can now produce continuously during minutes a velocity map, more or less every 100 ms. We did not found in the…

Cardiac CT is often used clinically in electrophysiology to evaluate cardiac morphology. One such case is to evaluate patients with Atrial Fibrillation (AF). AF can cause regions of slow blood flow and blood stasis through the left atrial…

We investigate the relationship between the blood flow velocities (BFV) in the middle cerebral arteries and beat-to-beat blood pressure (BP) recorded from a finger in healthy and post-stroke subjects during the quasi-steady state after…

Speckle contrast optical spectroscopy (SCOS) offers a non-invasive and cost-effective method for monitoring cerebral blood flow (CBF). However, extracting accurate CBF from SCOS necessitates precise noise pre-calibration. Errors from this…

We tested the hypothesis that simple exercises may significantly increase cerebral blood flow (CBF) and/or cerebral oxygenation. Eighteen subjects ranging in age from nineteen to thirty nine participated in a four-stage study during which…

Compared with CINE phase contrast MRI (CINE-PC), echo-planar imaging phase contrast (EPI-PC) can achieve realtime quantification of blood flow, with lower SNR. In this study, the pulsating real model of the simulated cerebral vasculature…

Significance: Measuring cerebral blood flow (CBF) is crucial for diagnosing various cerebral diseases. An affordable, wearable, and fiber-free continuous-wave speckle contrast flowmetry (CW-DSCF) technique has been developed for continuous…

Perfusion MRI is an important modality in many brain imaging protocols, since it probes cerebrovascular changes in aging and many diseases; however, it may not be always available. Here we introduce a method that seeks to estimate regional…

Flow analysis carried out using phase contrast cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (PC-CMR) enables the quantification of important parameters that are used in the assessment of cardiovascular function. An essential part of this analysis is…

Among the major factors controlling the cerebral blood flow (CBF) - cerebral perfusion pressure, arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), cerebral metabolism, arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), and cardiac output, the…

This study proposes a novel, contrast-free Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting (MRF) method using balanced Steady-State Free Precession (bSSFP) sequences for the quantification of cerebral blood volume (CBV), vessel radius (R), and…

Background. Different mechanisms have been proposed to relate atrial fibrillation (AF) and coronary flow impairment, even in absence of relevant coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the underlying hemodynamics remains unclear. Aim of the…

A joint image reconstruction and segmentation approach based on disentangled representation learning was trained to enable cardiac cine MR imaging in real-time and under free-breathing. An exploratory feasibility study tested the proposed…

Significance: Cerebral blood flow (CBF) imaging is crucial for diagnosing cerebrovascular diseases. However, existing large neuroimaging techniques with high cost, low sampling rate, and poor mobility make them unsuitable for continuous and…

Results of an experiment are presented whose aim is to explore the relationship between respiration and cerebral oxygenation. Measurements of end tidal CO2 (EtCO2) were taken simultaneously with cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) using the…

A healthy human brain is perfused with blood flowing laminarly through cerebral vessels, providing brain tissue with substrates such as oxygen and glucose. Under normal conditions, cerebral blood flow is controlled by autoregulation as well…

This work examines the hypothesis that intravoxel incoherent motion MRI (IVIM) can quantify local cerebral blood flow (qCBF), infarct volume, and define the ischemic penumbra for determination of the perfusion-diffusion mismatch (PWI/DWI)…

We study the middle cerebral artery blood flow velocity (MCAfv) in humans using transcranial Doppler ultrasonography (TCD). The time series of the axial flow velocity averaged over a cardiac beat interval is found to exhibit clear…

Airflow through the nasal cavity exhibits a wide variety of fluid dynamicsbehaviour due to the intricacy of the nasal geometry. The flow is naturallyunsteady and perhaps turbulent, despite CFD in the literature that assumesa steady laminar…

Flow 2.0 is an end-to-end easy-of-use software that allows us to quickly, robustly and accurately perform a batch process real-time phase contrast data and multivariate analysis of the effect of respiration on cerebral fluids circulation.…
