DOI: 10.1002/mp.14042
Abstract: Purpose Vestibular schwannomas (VSs) are uncommon benign brain tumors, generally treated using Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS). However, due to the possible adverse effect of transient tumor enlargement (TTE), large VS tumors are often surgically removed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00246-018-1858-z
Abstract: After an arterial switch operation (ASO), serial imaging is necessary to monitor for maladaptive changes. We compared cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) to 2-D transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in assessing post-operative ASO patients. We performed a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00246-018-2044-z
Abstract: Although transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is the first-line examination for the study of coronary lesions in Kawasaki disease, CT coronary angiography (CTCA) is increasingly used and showed good results. Our aim is to evaluate the contribution… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10840-017-0266-2
Abstract: BackgroundPrior studies report permanent pacemaker (PPM)-induced tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in up to one third of cases late post-implantation. We sought to assess the extent of immediate PPM-induced TR.MethodsForty patients undergoing PPM implant were prospectively enrolled.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11548-017-1653-y
Abstract: PurposeThe target registration error (TRE) is a crucial parameter to estimate the potential usefulness of computer-assisted navigation intraoperatively. Both image-to-patient registration on base of rigid-body registration and TRE prediction methods are available for spatially isotropic… read more here.
