Shen H, Bielak L, Streeten E, Ryan K, Rumberger J, Sheedy 2nd P, et al.
Calcif Tissue Int . 2007 Apr; 80(4):244-50. PMID: 17431532
Vascular calcification and osteoporosis are common age-related processes that are influenced by both genetic and nongenetic factors. Whether common genes underlie these processes is not known. We measured coronary artery...

Gerber T, Sheedy P, Bell M, Hayes D, Rumberger J, Behrenbeck T, et al.
Int J Cardiovasc Imaging . 2001 Aug; 17(1):65-75. PMID: 11495511
New therapeutic strategies in interventional cardiology and electrophysiology involve the coronary veins. This study examines the potential usefulness of electron beam computed tomography to obtain detailed noninvasive definition of the...

Am J Cardiol . 2001 Jul; 88(2A):66E-69E. PMID: 11473752
Tomographic coronary artery plaque imaging is possible noninvasively using x-ray computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The pathophysiology of coronary plaque disease is one of repeated inflammation and...

Keelan P, Bielak L, Ashai K, Jamjoum L, Denktas A, Rumberger J, et al.
Circulation . 2001 Jul; 104(4):412-7. PMID: 11468202
Background: Electron-beam CT (EBCT) quantification of coronary artery calcification (CAC) allows noninvasive assessment of coronary atherosclerosis. We undertook a follow-up study to determine whether CAC extent, measured at the time...

Gerber T, Schmermund A, Reed J, Rumberger J, Sheedy P, Gibbons R, et al.
Invest Radiol . 2001 Apr; 36(4):193-203. PMID: 11283416
Rationale And Objectives: The study compared the performance of conventional endocardial and epicardial centroid algorithms with the new "myocardial" centroid algorithm in patients with anterior myocardial infarction. "Floating" endocardial or...

Schmermund A, Schwartz R, Adamzik M, Sangiorgi G, Pfeifer E, Rumberger J, et al.
Atherosclerosis . 2001 Mar; 155(2):499-508. PMID: 11254922
Aim: sudden coronary death (SCD) in older individuals is generally associated with extensive coronary atherosclerosis, although it may be the first manifestation of ischaemic heart disease. In younger age-groups, SCD...

Rumberger J
Cardiol Clin . 2000 Sep; 18(3):547-56. PMID: 10986588
The examples provided in this article indicate that EBT, in addition to allowing for detailed descriptions of cardiac anatomy and contraction characteristics in man, can also be used to evaluate...

Schmermund A, Lerman L, Rumberger J, Lund P, Pfeifer E, Sheedy 2nd P, et al.
Am J Hypertens . 2000 Aug; 13(7):827-37. PMID: 10933576
Based on the reduction of ischemic cardiac events in clinical trials and experimental observations, inhibition of the effects of angiotensin II on coronary microcirculatory function may afford myocardial protection after...

Bielak L, Rumberger J, Sheedy 2nd P, Schwartz R, Peyser P
Circulation . 2000 Jul; 102(4):380-5. PMID: 10908208
Background: Electron beam CT (EBCT) is an accurate, noninvasive method to detect and quantify coronary artery calcification, a marker of coronary artery disease (CAD). This investigation examined the accuracy of...

Behrenbeck T, Gerber T, Mohlenkamp S, Laudon D, Kantor B, Sheedy 2nd P, et al.
Z Kardiol . 2000 Jul; 89 Suppl 1:43-9. PMID: 10907299
Electron beam computed tomography (EBCT) allows visualization and quantification of calcium in the coronary arteries. This has been demonstrated to correlate well with the overall plaque burden in the coronary...
