Remodeling of Failed Pulmonary Valve Autografts After the Ross Procedure

J Cardiovasc Transl Res. 2026 Oct 30;19(1):138. doi: 10.1007/s12265-026-10865-6.ABSTRACTThe Ross procedure utilizes a pulmonary autograft for aortic valve replacement, but late autograft failure remains a clinical challenge. In this exploratory study, we characterized structural alterations in faile

High Spatial Resolution 23Na-MRI for Ischemic Brain Injury Detection

High spatial resolution sodium (^(23)Na) imaging of brain lesions remains challenging due to the intrinsically low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of ^(23)Na-MRI compared with conventional proton (¹H) MRI. In this preclinical mouse study, we developed a high-resolution ^(23)Na-MRI platform based on a 14
