Background: Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is an important tool for aortic assessment in several cardiovascular diseases. Assessment of MRA images relies on manual segmentation, a time-intensive (...)

The 28th Annual Scientific Sessions of the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (SCMR) took place from January 29 to February 1, 2025, in Washington, D.C. SCMR 2025 brought together a diverse (...)

Thoracic aortopathies result in aneurysmal expansion of the aorta that can lead to rapidly fatal aortic dissection or rupture. Despite the availability of abundant non-invasive imaging tools, the grea (...)

Background Detection of vulnerable coronary plaque can predict future myocardial infarctions. We have developed a novel, non-contrast cardiovascular magnetic resonance sequence (iT2prep-BOOST), enabli (...)

Achieving sufficient spatial and temporal resolution for dynamic applications in cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is a challenging task due to the inherently slow nature of CMR. In orde (...)

The 36th Annual International Meeting of the Society for Magnetic Resonance Angiography (SMRA), held from November 12-15, 2024, in Santiago de Chile, marked a milestone as the first SMRA conference in (...)

The urbanisation process of cities disrupts the natural energy balance and surface radiation, making cities relatively warm. While vegetation has been widely recognised as a key factor in mitigating u (...)

Subduction megathrusts release stress not only seismically through earthquakes, but also through creep and transient slow deformation, called slow slip events (SSEs). Understanding the interplay betwe (...)

Global change and uncertainty underscore the necessity of equipping pre-service teachers with twenty-first-century skills. There is a lack of empirical studies demonstrating how these skills contribut (...)

Background Process mining is an emerging discipline that allows for the analysis of procedural executions performed in a training context, providing objective information about adherence with a normat (...)

Solid lubricant coatings are essential for reducing friction and wear in tribo-mechanical systems, particularly in environments where traditional liquid lubricants can't be used or fail. It has been r (...)

Masonry made of Multi-Perforated Clay Bricks (MPCLB) has a complex mechanical behavior due to the geometry of the units, especially under shear forces. The behavior becomes even more complex when maso (...)

Leapfrog Triejoin (LTJ) is arguably the most practical and popular worst-case-optimal (wco) algorithm for solving basic graph patterns in graph databases. Its main drawback is that it needs the databa (...)

The present work evaluates the effect of two alkali promoters (K and Mg) over Fe-monometallic (Fe, Mo, and Re) and bimetallic Fe-metal carbides catalysts in the CO2-FT reaction. Catalysts were charact (...)

This study investigates the evolution and current status of seismic design regulations in Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela, using a pre-established methodology previou (...)

Introduction Digital twins of the respiratory system have shown promise in predicting the patient-specific response of lungs connected to mechanical ventilation. However, modeling the spatiotemporal r (...)

The gut-brain axis enables communication between the central nervous system and the gut, with certain microbial metabolites influencing neurodegeneration. Using genome-scale metabolic modeling, we des (...)

Understanding the factors that influence the spatial and temporal rupture history of large subduction earthquakes is essential for seismic hazard assessment. In this study, we focus on one candidate: (...)

Formic acid is obtained as a byproduct of biomass pyrolysis and is used as a liquid organic hydrogen carrier due to its low decomposition temperature, enabling hydrogen production under mild condition (...)

The anisotropic structure of the myocardium is a key determinant of the cardiac function. To date there is no imaging modality to assess in vivo the cardiac fibre structure. We recently proposed Fiber (...)
