  • IMAGING PROTOCOLS
    Publication number: 20140193336
    Abstract: Protocols for radioimaging an event or disorder are provided. An exemplary protocol comprises a method of radioimaging a myocardial perfusion, the method comprising in sequence: (a) administering to a subject about 3 mCi Tl201 thallous chloride; (b) allowing said subject to rest; (c) radioimaging a heart of said subject; (d) subjecting said subject to a physical stress; (e) administering to said subject at a peak of said physical stress about 20-30 mCi Tc99m sestamibi; and (f) radioimaging said heart of said subject, thereby radioimaging a myocardial perfusion.

  • Shock-Wave Generating Device, Such as for the Treatment of Calcific Aortic Stenosis
    Publication number: 20090227992
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for removing deposits from an in vivo tissue, such as removing calcified plaque from a calcified aortic valve by removing the deposits with the help of shock waves produced by a light-source such as a laser in an aqueous liquid in proximity of the tissue as well as a shock-wave generating device useful in implementing the method. Disclosed is a minimally invasive valve-sparing treatment of calcific aortic stenosis.
