Guo W, Morrisett J, DEBAKEY M, Lawrie G, Hamilton J
Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol . 2000 Jun; 20(6):1630-6. PMID: 10845882
Because of renewed interest in the progression, stabilization, and regression of atherosclerotic plaques, it has become important to develop methods for characterizing structural features of plaques in situ and noninvasively....

Chest . 1999 Jan; 115(1):135-9. PMID: 9925074
Background: When aortic insufficiency is present, antegrade delivery of cardioplegia requires coronary cannulation. Use of retrograde cardioplegia simplifies administration. The efficacy of the retrograde route alone in ensuring adequate myocardial...

Cardiol Clin . 1998 Sep; 16(3):437-48. PMID: 9742323
Techniques now exist to correct abnormalities of all components of the mitral valvular apparatus except extensive loss of pliable leaflet area. Thus, paradoxically, myxomatous valves with redundant leaflets represent the...

Magn Reson Med . 1998 Feb; 39(2):184-9. PMID: 9469700
Accumulation of lipids in atherosclerotic plaques causes progressive narrowing of the arterial lumen, often followed by thrombosis and ischemia. Currently several different methods, most requiring disruption of the plaque, are...

Dakik H, Howell J, Lawrie G, Espada R, WEILBAECHER D, He Z, et al.
Circulation . 1997 Dec; 96(9):2892-8. PMID: 9386154
Background: Assessment of myocardial viability by 99mTc-sestamibi remains controversial. Accordingly, we investigated the use of sestamibi as a marker of myocardial viability, defined by histopathology, and for predicting improvement of...
