Experimental Cardiovascular Imaging (ExCaVI)

rapid imaging of the coronary vasculature

 

Example shows 3D whole-heart coronary angiograms acquired with two-dimensional accelerated parallel imaging


 

 

General

The group was found in 2007 for the assessement of the value of non-invasive imaging tools in the realm of cardiovascular imaging. The main focus is to establish comprehensive non-invasive diagnostic imaging procedures for  risk stratification, staging, diagnosis and therapy selection for the major cardiovascular diseases. Current research is focussed on:

  • Assessment of the clincal role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases
  • Development of non-invasive image based individual risk stratification for atherosclerotic diseases of the vascular system
  • Assessment of the clinical role of MRI for cardiac electrophysiology including ablation treatment and device implantation
  • Assessment of the value of MRI for cardiovascular intervention planning and guidance
