This review summarizes key imaging studies that were presented at the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions 2020, which occurred virtually this year due to the pandemic, related to the fields of single-photon emission computed tomography, positron emission tomography, cardiac computed tomography, cardiac magnetic resonance, and echocardiography. The aim of this bird's eye view is to inform readers of the various studies discussed at the meeting from these imaging modalities. Since there was no physical attendance this year, we find that a general overview of imaging will be especially useful. Further, we hope that the presentation of multiple imaging studies in a single synthesized review will stimulate new ideas for future research in imaging.
这篇综述总结了在美国心脏协会科学会议 2020 年期间展示的关键影像学研究,由于今年的大流行,会议改为线上虚拟形式举行。这些研究涉及单光子发射计算机断层扫描、正电子发射断层扫描、心脏计算机断层扫描、心脏磁共振和超声心动图等领域。本文旨在向读者介绍从这些影像学模式讨论的会议上的各种研究。由于今年没有实际参加会议,我们发现对影像学的总体概述将特别有用。此外,我们希望在一篇综述中综合呈现多个影像学研究,能够为未来的影像学研究激发新的思路。
