Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System IV: CMRI

508
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging, or CMRI, is a non-invasive diagnostic test that employs a magnetic field and radiofrequency waves to create precise images of the heart and arteries. It provides comprehensive information about cardiac anatomy, function, perfusion, and tissue characterization without ionizing radiation.IndicationsCMRI diagnoses various heart conditions, including tissue damage from heart attacks, ischemic heart disease, myocarditis, aortic issues (tears, aneurysms,...

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Imaging
  • Medical Physics
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Coronary Magnetic Resonance Angiography (CMRA) is crucial for diagnosing coronary artery disease.
  • Motion artifacts significantly degrade CMRA image quality, especially during free-breathing scans.
  • Accurate motion tracking and correction are essential for reliable CMRA diagnosis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a method for acquiring whole-heart 3D image-based navigators (iNAVs) with isotropic resolution.
  • To enable precise tracking and correction of localized cardiac motion in CMRA.
  • To improve image quality and diagnostic accuracy in free-breathing CMRA.

Main Methods:

  • A variable-density cones trajectory was employed to acquire 3D iNAVs every heartbeat (176 ms) with 4.4 mm isotropic resolution.
  • Undersampled 3D iNAV data were reconstructed using efficient self-consistent parallel imaging reconstruction (ESPIRiT).
  • 3D translational and nonrigid motion-correction methods utilizing 3D iNAVs were compared against 2D iNAV-based methods.

Main Results:

  • Five subjects underwent scanning with both 2D and 3D iNAVs during 3D cones CMRA.
  • Vessel sharpness and reader scoring demonstrated that 3D iNAV-based nonrigid motion correction was noninferior to 2D iNAV-based correction.
  • The quality of the right and left anterior descending coronary arteries was assessed on motion-corrected images.

Conclusions:

  • The study successfully demonstrated the acquisition of isotropic-resolution 3D iNAVs every heartbeat during CMRA.
  • These 3D iNAVs facilitate direct measurement of localized motion for nonrigid motion correction in free-breathing whole-heart CMRA.
  • This advancement holds potential for enhancing diagnostic capabilities in CMRA.
