Nevertheless, medical advancements have drastically improved survival and quality of life across the range of cardiovascular pathologies, and imaging has played a key role in ushering in this improved standard of care. The diverse range of novel imaging modalities currently available for studying the heart and vasculature provides unique access to anatomy and physiology that would otherwise only be visible with surgical intervention and is at the center of both medical research and clinical practice. 000008085 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000008085 650__ $$aAtherosclerosis$$036329 000008085 650__ $$aEndothelium$$018439 000008085 650__ $$aMolecular Imaging$$038808 000008085 650__ $$avon Willebrand Factor$$027909 000008085 650__ $$aUltrasonography$$027551 000008085 650__ $$aCardiac Imaging Techniques$$038983 000008085 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000008085 692__ $$aDepartment of Biomedical Engineering$$041397 000008085 7001_ $$aBrown, Eran$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008085 7201_ $$aLindner, Jonathan$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354$$7Personal$$eAdvisor 000008085 8564_ $$910a5fe3b-29f0-4864-a312-0d5b1f47d1db$$s4634005$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/8085/files/Brown.Eran.2020.pdf$$ePublic$$263ec0d113b52721e653998328634c0f8$$31 000008085 905__ $$a/rest/prod/9k/41/zf/13/9k41zf13m 000008085 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:8085$$pstudent-work 000008085 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations
