To study the feasiblity of cardiac MRI at 3T and the potential benefits of the intravascular contrast agent gadofosveset for studying and quantifiaction of heart function and -perfusion.
The objective of this study is to investigate what the value is of SET after a radiological or surgical intervention for peripheral arterial disease in the aorto-iliacal, femoro-popliteal and crural segments in comparison with a control group.
To get more insight in the inflammatory processes induced by glucose in heallthy volunteers and patients with insulin dependent T2DM and hyperlipidemia.
The purpose of this study is to assess the reproducibility of ASL perfusion measurement in the brain.
The objective of the study is to assess whether in young patients with arteriopathic stroke perfusion abnormalities in non-infarcted brain are associated with the type and course of arteriopathy and stroke outcome in terms of functional recovery and…
Primary objective of this study is to assess the treatment outcomes in terms of mobility parameters.Secondary objective is to assess the level of functional status and health-related quality of life.
To improve the quality of care for children with End Stage Renal Disease by central registration and frequent intervision.
application of tin foil on an amputated leg deminishes fantoom pain
To assess the level of functional status of patients with critical limb ischemia after percutaneous revascularization or bypass surgery and major amputation and to identify subgroups that might benefit from primary amputation instead of…
To assess the microvascular architecture in lip and nailfold of healthy volunteers. To determine reproducibility of the OPS imaging technique for assessment of microvascular architecture.
We therefore set out to study the relationship of LCAT with atherosclerosis using 3.0 Tesla MRI mean wall area (MWA) measurements of the carotid arteries as a marker for atherosclerosis in a cohort of LCAT mutation carriers and compare them to…
The objective is to study whether saturated fatty acids induce a different postprandial change in inflammatory markers than cis-polyunsaturated fatty acids.
We aim to create a large cohort of patients with early-onset CAD to study sequence variations resulting in CVD. Initially, by validating sequence variations in candidate genes and loci found by our PAS pedigrees work, GWAS studies and Cardiochip…
To establish superiority of the biolimus-eluting (BiomatrixTM) stent compared with an otherwise identical bare-metal stent (GazelleTM) in acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in terms of the composite endpoint of cardiac death,…
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of glycemic control on microvascular endothelial function in type 2 diabetes mellitus.
to investigate the risk of death and incident cardiovascular diseaseto investigate the risk of mild cognitive impairment and incident (vascular) dementia
Objective of the study is to investigate the effects of aspirin on the platelet function of healthy volunteers and of patients with ischemic stroke. In another part of the study, we will investigate whether or not the effects of aspirin on the…
The primary aim of this study is to assess reproducibility of carotid artery plaque lipid content by means of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS).
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether contrast-enhanced ultrasound and/or MRI are able to depict neovascularisation in atherosclerotic lesions (plaques) of the carotid artery. If contrast-enhannced ultrasound and/or MRI are able to do…
