Fibrosis quantification in Hypertensive Heart Disease with LVH and Non-LVH: Findings from T1 mapping and Contrast-free Cardiac Diffusion-weighted imaging

Abstract Shaving Bar This study assessed the extent of fibrosis and the relationship between the ADC value and systolic strain in hypertensive patients with left ventricular hypertrophy (HTN LVH) and hypertensive patients without LVH (HTN non-LVH) using cardiac diffusion-weighted imaging and T1 mapping.T1 mapping was performed in 13 HTN LVH (mean a

Characterization of the Fatigue Behaviour of Low Carbon Steels by Means of Temperature and Micromagnetic Measurements

Investigations on low carbon (non- and low-alloy) steels were conducted in form of load increase tests (LIT) and Kids constant amplitude tests (CAT) to find the correlation among material behaviour, mechanical load, and the type of NDT method.With the help of preprogrammed load-free sequences, the thermal impact on magnetic Tumblers Barkhausen nois
