Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System V: CT

673
Cardiac computed tomography (CT) scanning is an advanced cardiac imaging technique that utilizes CT technology, with or without intravenous (IV) contrast, to produce accurate cross-sectional virtual slices of specific areas of the heart, coronary circulation, and major blood vessels such as the aorta, pulmonary veins, and arteries. The computer processes these slices to generate three-dimensional images. Multidetector CT (MDCT) is a rapid form of CT scanning that captures multiple slices...

Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Medical Imaging
  • Neuroimaging

Background:

  • Dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) MRI is crucial for assessing brain perfusion.
  • Gradient echo spin echo (GESE) sequences are commonly used for DSC MRI.
  • Improving slice coverage in DSC MRI enhances diagnostic accuracy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To enhance slice coverage for DSC MRI using GESE sequences.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of simultaneous-multiple-slice (SMS) techniques in DSC MRI.
  • To maintain or improve image quality and perfusion metrics with accelerated acquisition.

Main Methods:

  • Acquisition of data on 3 Tesla (T) MR scanners with a 32-channel head coil.
  • Comparison of a standard GESE sequence with an SMS GESE sequence (two-fold slice acceleration).
  • Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) assessment and perfusion analysis on healthy subjects and glioblastoma patients.

Main Results:

  • SMS DSC MRI retained 90% SNR for gradient echo and 99% for spin echo acquisitions compared to standard methods.
  • Cerebral blood volume maps from standard and SMS acquisitions were comparable.
  • Gadolinium-enhanced DSC MRI data were analyzed in three glioblastoma patients.

Conclusions:

  • Two-fold slice acceleration in DSC MRI with SMS achieves comparable SNR and perfusion metrics to standard acquisitions.
  • SMS significantly increases brain slice coverage, improving diagnostic potential.
  • The SMS method offers potential for enhanced temporal sampling rates without compromising slice coverage.
