Significance: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a predominant form of dementia that can lead to a decline in the quality of life and mortality. The understanding of the pathological changes requires monitoring of multiple cerebral biomarkers simultaneously with high resolution. Photoacoustic microscopy resolves single capillaries, allowing investigations into the most affected types of vessels.

Introduction: Nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis (NBTE) is a rare cardiac manifestation in patients with advanced malignancies of the lungs, pancreas, gynecological system, and gastrointestinal tract. It is often confirmed postmortem by histopathological evidence of sterile platelet-fibrin deposits attached to the endocardium, most often on heart valves. To the best of our knowledge, our case is the first to report multiple heart lesions caused by the systemic effect of cholangiocarcinoma.

We report the case of a 78-year-old patient with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of the right coronary artery, subsequently found to have a large subepicardial mass. The patient underwent a non-invasive multimodal diagnostic work-up including cardiac computed tomography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, which led to the diagnosis of subepicardial hematoma following coronary perforation during primary PCI. Due to clinical stability and absence of active bleeding sources, the patient was managed conservatively with gradual absorption of the mass and favorable prognostic outcome.

Sleep apnea/hypopnea is a sleep disorder characterized by repeated pauses in breathing which could induce a series of health problems such as cardiovascular disease (CVD) and even sudden death. Polysomnography (PSG) is the most common way to diagnose sleep apnea/hypopnea. Considering that PSG data acquisition is complex and the diagnosis of sleep apnea/hypopnea requires manual scoring, it is very time-consuming and highly professional.

Background: Arrhythmias originating from papillary muscles (PAPs) can be challenging when targeted with catheter ablation. The prevalence and impact of structural abnormalities on PAPs in patients with focal PAP arrhythmias is unknown.
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to analyze, in a consecutive patient series with focal PAP arrhythmias, the impact of structural abnormalities detected by multimodality imaging.
