The aim of this study was to compare contrast-enhanced electron-beam computed tomography (EBCT) and navigator-echo-based MRI of the coronary arteries in the same patient population. Both methods were assessed for visualization of the coronary arteries and their diagnostic accuracy in identifying significant coronary artery stenoses compared with conventional coronary angiography. Twenty patients with known coronary artery disease were examined with both contrast-enhanced EBCT and a respiratory-gated MRI sequence. A grading system was used to evaluate the image quality. Sensitivity and specificity for the detection of significant coronary artery stenoses was evaluated compared with conventional coronary angiography. With EBCT, 89% of the main coronary arteries could be completely visualised in the proximal and middle segments; with MRI, 83% were visualised. With EBCT the sensitivities for identifying significant (>/=50%) stenoses in proximal and middle vessel segments were 75% in the main stem, 88% in the left anterior descending coronary artery, 75% in the left circumflex coronary artery, and 90% in the right coronary artery. Respective sensitivities for MRI angiograms were 75, 82, 75 and 80%. With both modalities a sufficient image quality of the main coronary arteries can be obtained in most cases. The diagnostic capability for detecting significant stenoses is comparable for both methods. 相似文献

PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to compare a conventional respiratory-gated 3D MR coronary angiographic technique (conventional MRCA) with a respiratory-gated 3D MR coronary angiographic technique that includes a slice interpolation technique (slice interpolation MRCA). Both MRCA techniques were compared based on the quality of visualization of the coronary arteries and the diagnostic accuracy in identifying hemodynamically significant coronary artery stenoses. METHOD: Forty patients with known proximal coronary artery stenosis after conventional CA were examined on a 1.5 T scanner, that is, 20 patients with each sequence. A 6 point grading system (0 = worst quality, 5 = best quality) was used to evaluate and compare the image quality. The length and proximal diameter of the depicted coronary arteries were measured. Detection of coronary artery stenoses was compared with that obtained by conventional CA by two blinded readers. RESULTS: With the slice interpolation technique, the average scan time of the entire heart was reduced by approximately 40%. With use of conventional MRCA, 69% of all proximal and middle coronary artery segments were visualized with a sufficient image quality; with the slice interpolation technique, 79% of these segments were depicted adequately. For the assessment of stenoses, sensitivity was 71% and specificity was 53% for conventional MRCA and 72 and 60% for slice interpolation MRCA, respectively. These differences in sensitivity and specificity were statistically not significant. CONCLUSION: The application of a slice interpolation technique reduces the scan time, maintains a comparable sensitivity and specificity for the assessment of coronary artery stenoses, and increases the number of completely identified coronary artery segments compared with the conventional technique. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To assess the diagnostic value of three-dimensional coronary magnetic resonance (MR) angiography with fat saturation and navigator echo in the setting of restenosis after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty consecutive patients who had PTCA and were referred for elective coronary reangiography underwent MR imaging and coronary angiography. The pulse sequence was a cardiac triggered, single-slab, three-dimensional, gradient-echo sequence, employing a spin-echo navigator echo measurement to track the variation of the diaphragm during the scan. The following segments of the coronary arteries were included in this prospective study: left main coronary artery, proximal and middle left anterior descending, proximal and middle left circumflex, proximal and middle right coronary artery, and intermediate branch, if present. The quality of the MR images was graded from 0 to 5. RESULTS: In total, 221 coronary artery segments could be identified. Mean image quality was 3.3. Overall accuracy for segments with an image quality of grade 2 or more was 90%. To achieve a positive predictive value >70% for a significant stenosis/restenosis, only segments with quality >/=3 could be assessed, whereas an acceptable negative predictive value could be achieved for nearly all segments. CONCLUSION: Our preliminary data suggest that MR coronary angiography may be most helpful as a screening test in selected patients to exclude clinically relevant stenoses or to assess restenoses after PTCA or in patients in whose coronary angiography is relatively contraindicated. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate the use of breath-hold three-dimensional (3D) steady-state free precession (SSFP) coronary magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) in comparison with conventional coronary x-ray angiography (XRA). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-eight patients with suspected CAD were examined with the use of a breath-hold 3D-SSFP-MRA sequence and conventional XRA. To assess the accuracy of MRA, two clinicians who were blinded to patient information independently reviewed the MRA and XRA data, which were presented in a randomized order. To identify discrepancies between MRA and XRA, and assess features of coronary lesions on MRA, two additional clinicians examined MRA and XRA data that were presented side by side, divided into proximal, mid, and distal segments, and compared them segment by segment. RESULTS: The sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing significant coronary stenoses (> 50% diameter narrowing) were 64% and 94%, respectively. At sites of coronary lesions identified on XRA, bright signals and enlarged vessel profiles, in addition to the characteristic narrow lumen, were frequently observed on MRA. CONCLUSION: Breath-hold SSFP coronary MRA has good specificity but inconclusive sensitivity in diagnosing significant coronary stenoses, and provides important image features for depicting coronary lesions. 相似文献

We evaluated free-breathing, prospective navigator-gated, three-dimensional (3D) magnetic resonance coronary angiography (MRCA) with hybrid ordered phase-encoding (HOPE), in the detection of proximal coronary artery stenosis. The coronary arteries were imaged in 46 patients undergoing cardiac catheterization. The mean scan time was 48 minutes. The mean arterial length (mm) visualized was left main stem (LMS) 11.7 (SD 4.5), left anterior descending (LAD) 30.1 (SD 11.1), circumflex (LCx) 15.5 (SD 8.6), and right (RCA) 56.2 (SD 20.8). Twenty-three patients had coronary artery disease with 47 significant stenoses on cardiac catheterization. All LMS were normal on both catheterization and MRCA. MRCA sensitivity was highest for the LAD (89% CI 65%-99%) and RCA (76% CI 50%-93%), but lower for the LCx (50% CI 21%-79%). Specificity ranged from 72%-100%. Improvements in image quality, length of vessel seen, and specific imaging of the LCx are required for MRCA to become an alternative to cardiac catheterization. 相似文献

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To compare the diagnostic value of magnetic resonance (MR) and computed tomography (CT) for the detection of coronary artery disease (CAD) with special regard to calcifications. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-seven patients with known CAD were examined with a targeted, navigator-gated, free-breathing, steady-state free precession MR angiography sequence (repetition time = 5.6 milliseconds, echo time = 2.8 milliseconds, flip angle 110 degrees ) and 16-slice coronary CT angiography. Segment-based sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for the detection of stenoses larger than 50% were determined as defined by the gold standard catheter coronary angiography along with the subjective image quality (Grade 1-4). The degree of calcifications in each segment was quantified using a standard calcium scoring tool. RESULTS: Of 115 possible segments, 7% had to be excluded in MR imaging because of poor image quality. In CT, 3% were nondiagnostic because of image quality and 15% were not evaluable because of calcifications. Values for the detection of relevant coronary artery stenoses in the evaluated segments were: sensitivity: MR imaging 85% versus CT 96%; specificity: 88% versus 96%; accuracy: 87% versus. 96%. Average subjective image quality was 1.8 for MR imaging and 1.6 for CT. Of the 15% of segments that had to be excluded from CT evaluation because of calcifications, MR imaging provided the correct diagnosis segments in 67%. CONCLUSIONS: CT provided a better image quality with superior accuracy for the detection of CAD. Despite its overall inferiority, MR imaging proved to be helpful method in interpreting coronary stenosis in severely calcified segments. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to compare the diagnostic value of MR angiography (MRA) with conventional contrast angiography in coronary artery disease. Thirty-five patients underwent MRA and coronary angiography within 4 hours. Of these, three patients were investigated twice: once before and once after balloon angioplasty. The pulse sequence was a cardiac-triggered, single-slab, three-dimensional gradient-echo sequence, employing a spin-echo navigator echo measurement to track the variation of the diaphragm during the scan. The following segments of the coronary arteries were included in this prospective study: left main coronary artery, proximal and middle left anterior descending, proximal and middle left circumflex, proximal and middle right coronary artery, and intermediate branch, if present. In total, 176 segments were classified as normal or having a stenosis of less than 50% and as having a stenosis of more than 50%. Five patients were excluded because of lack of cooperation. Over all, 45 of 54 stenoses were detected and interpretable by MRA. Sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values of MRA for detecting significant stenoses were 83%, 94%, 87%, and 93%, respectively. MRA identified significant stenoses within the major coronary arteries with a high degree of accuracy. Sensitivity and specificity are higher compared with exercise tests or scintigraphy or top of the precise localization. 相似文献

PURPOSE: X-ray angiography is currently the standard test for the assessment of coronary artery disease. A substantial minority of patients referred for coronary angiography have no significant coronary artery disease. The purpose of this work was the evaluation of the accuracy of a three-dimensional (3D) breathhold coronary magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) technique in detecting hemodynamically significant coronary artery stenoses in a patient population with x-ray angiographic correlation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sequential subjects (n = 33, M/F = 22/11, average age = 57) who were referred for conventional coronary angiography were enrolled in the study. The study protocol was approved by our institutional review board. Each subject gave written informed consent. Volume-targeted 3D breathhold coronary artery scans with ECG-triggered, segmented True Fast Imaging with Steady-state Precession (TrueFISP) were acquired for the left main (LM), left anterior descending (LAD), and right coronary arteries (RCAs). Coronary MRA was evaluated with conventional angiography as the gold standard. RESULTS: The overall sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) for diagnosing any hemodynamically significant coronary artery disease (> or =50% diameter reduction) with coronary MRA was 87%, 57%, 72%, 68%, and 80%, respectively. The sensitivity of the technique in the LM, LAD, and RCA was 100%, 83%, and 100%, respectively. The NPV of the technique in the LM, LAD, and RCA was 100%, 82%, and 100%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Three-dimensional breathhold True Fast Imaging with Steady-state Precession is a promising technique for coronary artery imaging. It has a relatively high sensitivity and NPV. Results of this study warrant further technical improvements and clinical evaluation of the technique. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Coronary magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography are being discussed as alternatives to catheter angiography in the detection of coronary artery disease. Yet, only few comparative validations have been performed. PURPOSE: To compare steady-state free precession whole heart coronary magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with multidetector coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) for the detection of coronary artery disease using catheter angiography as the standard of reference. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Twenty patients with known CAD were examined with navigator (NAV) gated and corrected free-breathing 3D balanced gradient echo whole heart coronary MRI and coronary CTA. Subjective overall image quality (4 point scale, 1 = excellent), visibility of vessel segments and accuracy for the detection of significant coronary stenoses (>50%) were compared to coronary x-ray angiography by two blinded readers. RESULTS: Median of subjective image quality was 3 for coronary MRI and 2 for coronary CTA. Of a total of 209 segments, 67 segments (32%) had to be excluded from the evaluation by coronary MRI (61 due to insufficient image quality and 6 due to stent artifacts). For coronary CTA, 31 segments (15%) had to be excluded from the evaluation (12 due to insufficient image quality, 15 due to severe calcifications superimposing the vessel lumen and 4 due to stent artifacts. Segment based values for the detection of >/=50% diameter coronary x-ray angiographic stenoses were: specificity: MRI 88%, CTA 95%; sensitivity: MRI 82%, CTA 84%; diagnostic accuracy: MRI 87%, CTA 93%; positive predictive value: MRI 68%, CTA 77% and negative predictive value: MRI 94%, CTA 95%. CONCLUSION: Coronary WH-MRI was inferior to coronary CTA regarding image quality and number of evaluable segments but both had similar diagnostic value for the detection and exclusion of CAD when only evaluable segments were included. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To assess the feasibility of Clariscan, an intravascular contrast agent, for free breathing, navigator assisted, high resolution, three-dimensional-magnetic resonance coronary angiography (MRCA) in patients, as extracellular contrast agents are unfavorable for the improvement of image quality. MATERIALS AND METHODS: MRCA was performed in 10 patients with known coronary artery disease (CAD) with (1-5 mg Fe/kg body weight) and without contrast agent. RESULTS: Compared to unenhanced images, Clariscan did not improve signal-to-noise (SNR) or contrast-to-noise ratios (CNR) compared to fat or myocardium in the proximal parts of the coronary arteries. However, when analyzing the peripheral parts (>4 cm from origin), CNR(fat) and CNR(myo) improved up to a factor of 1.81 and 5.85, respectively, at a dose of 3 mg Fe/kg body weight, while SNR did not reach statistical significance. The visible length of the coronary arteries was improved from 49 +/- 18 mm to 73 +/- 33 mm. The proximal diameter was reduced from 3.6 +/- 0.8mm to 3.2 +/- 0.8 mm, representing more closely the diameter of 3.1 +/- 0.7 mm measured by quantitative coronary angiography. Of 11 significant stenoses (>50%), eight were identified in the enhanced compared to six in the unenhanced images. CONCLUSION: The use of Clariscan at a dose of 2-3 mg Fe/kg body weight improves image quality of three-dimensional-MRCA, especially in the peripheral segments, and, thus, the diagnostic accuracy for the detection of CAD. 相似文献

Purpose: To assess the clinical value of three-dimensional coronary MR angiography (CMRA) in the detection of significant coronary artery stenosis using conventional X-ray angiography as the standard reference.
Material and Methods: Sixty-nine patients underwent X-ray coronary angiography and CMRA because of suspected or previously diagnosed coronary artery disease. MRI was performed with a 1.5-T whole body imaging system using ECG-triggered 3D gradient echo sequence with retrospective navigator echo respiratory gating and fat suppression.
Results: A total of 276 coronary artery segments were analyzed. The X-ray coronary angiography was normal in 22 patients. Significant proximal stenoses (exceeding 50%) or occlusions were present in 102 coronary artery segments. In all, 120 stenoses or occlusions were identified in CMRA. Sixteen percent of the coronary artery segments had to be excluded because of poor image quality. The overall sensitivity and specificity for MRA for identification of significant stenosis were 75% and 62%, respectively. CMRA correctly detected 89% of patients with at least one vessel disease, but 6 patients with coronary artery disease would have been missed.
Conclusions: Because of the high data exclusion and false- negative case rate, CMRA with retrospective navigator echo triggering is at present not suitable as a clinical screening method in coronary artery disease. 相似文献

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Restenosis remains a major limitation of coronary catheter-based stent placement. Therefore, a reliable noninvasive diagnostic method for the evaluation of stented coronary arteries would be highly desirable. Our aim was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of high-resolution 64-slice computed tomography (64SCT) in a pilot study for the assessment of the lumen of coronary artery stents. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-five patients underwent 64SCT of the coronary arteries and quantitative x-ray coronary angiography (QCA) after coronary artery stent placement. 64SCT coronary angiography was performed with the following parameters: spatial resolution = 0.4 x 0.4 x 0.4 mm; temporal resolution = 83-165 milliseconds; contrast agent = 80 mL at a flow rate of 5 mL/second; retrospective electrocardiogram gating. The 64SCT scans were evaluated for image quality and for the presence of significant in-stent and peri-stent (proximal and distal) stenoses. Determinations were made of the sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic accuracy, and positive and negative predictive values (PPV and NPV) of 64SCT for the detection or exclusion of stenoses. RESULTS: A total of 46 stents were evaluated, of which 45 (98%) were of diagnostic image quality. Significant in-stent restenosis or occlusion was detected on QCA in 8/45 cases (>/=50% stenosis = 6; occlusion = 2). The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, PPV, and NPV of 64SCT for the detection of significant in-stent disease was 75%, 92%, 89%, 67%, and 94%, respectively. Both occluded coronary artery stents were correctly identified. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy values of 64SCT for the detection of significant proximal peri-stent stenoses were 75%, 95%, and 93%, respectively, whereas the values for detection of significant distal peri-stent stenoses were 67%, 85%, and 84%, respectively. CONCLUSION: The high spatial and temporal resolution of 64SCT may permit improved assessment of stent occlusion and peri-stent disease, although detection of in-stent stenosis remains difficult. 相似文献

Background With multihead gamma cameras both 180- and 360-degree acquisitions of myocardial perfusion are feasible. However, with 99mTC-labeled sestamibi (99mTC-sestamibi) the optimal clinically relevant demonstration of the superiority of 180- versus 360-degree data acquisition
has not been performed.
Methods Seventy-two consecutive patients undergoing 99mTc-sestamibi imaging at rest and stress who had coronary angiography performed within 3 months were enrolled. The results
of blinded interpretation of 13 segments per patient for the 180- and 360-degree data were compared for interobserver variability.
Sensitivity and specificity of defect localization in the left anterior descending, right coronary, and left circumflex territories
for detection of 50% or greater or 70% or greater stenoses by coronary angiography were compared.
Results There was significant segmental agreement of the stress perfusion images between observers for 180-degree (Kappa=0.63) and
360-degree data (Kappa=0.58), but the agreement was significantly higher for 180-degree data (p<0.05). Overall sensitivity for the detection of coronary artery disease as a 50% or greater stenosis in 62 patients was 79%
with 180-degree acquisition and 77% with 360-degree acquisition. The specificity for absence of coronary artery disease in
10 patients was also similar at 70% and 80%, respectively. There was no overall difference in detection of individual stenoses
with a sensitivity of 54% with 180-degree acquisition and 50% with 360-degree acquisition. Specificity was also similar at
78% and 81%, respectively.
Conclusion There is no difference in clinically relevant detection of overall coronary artery disease or individual stenoses using 180-
or 360-degree acquisition of 99mTC-sestamibi myocardial perfusion images. However, 180-degree acquisition has superior interobserver reproducibility.

Background. Multislice computed tomography coronary angiography (CTA) was proposed as a method for investigating possible coronary artery
disease (CAD) in patients who present with chest pain but with a low to intermediate likelihood of CAD. Sixty-four-channel
CTA was compared prospectively with 99mTc-tetrofosmin myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) (as the gold standard in the detection of flow-limiting stenoses) for
the detection of functionally significant CAD.
Methods and Results. Fifty-two consecutive symptomatic patients with a low to intermediate likelihood of coronary artery disease, and who were
referred for MPS, also underwent CTA. The CTA datasets were analyzed by two experienced observers who were blinded to the
MPS data, and coronary artery segments were reported as <50%, 50% to 69%, 70% to 99% stenoses, or occluded. The MPS images
were similarly analyzed for inducible perfusion abnormalities, and coronary territories were identified. At the patient level,
agreement between CTA and MPS for CTA lesions at ≥50% was 87% (sensitivity, 100%; specificity, 84%; positive predictive value,
50%; negative predictive value, 100%). For CTA lesions, agreement at ≥70% was 96% (sensitivity, 86%; specificity, 98%; positive
predictive value, 86%; negative predictive value, 98%).
Conclusions. In patients with a low to intermediate likelihood of CAD, there is good correlation between MPS and CTA for the detection
of functionally significant coronary artery stenoses when CTA detects a narrowing of ≥70% severity. Computed tomography coronary
angiography stenoses of 70% should be used to determine functional significance, and not 50%, as is the usual practice at
present.
