Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

Enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance radiomics accurately identifies high-risk dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) patients. This imaging tool aids in predicting mortality and the need for heart transplantation, improving patient care.

Area Of Science

  • Cardiology
  • Medical Imaging
  • Radiomics

Background

  • Precise identification of high-risk dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is crucial for patient management.
  • Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging offers detailed cardiac visualization.
  • Radiomics extracts quantitative features from medical images.

Purpose Of The Study

  • To evaluate the prognostic capability of enhanced cine CMR-based radiomics in DCM.
  • To develop a predictive model for adverse outcomes in DCM patients.

Main Methods

  • 401 DCM patients were prospectively enrolled (281 training, 120 testing).
  • Radiomic features were extracted from enhanced cine CMR images and selected using LASSO.
  • Logistic regression models predicted all-cause mortality and heart transplantation.

Main Results

  • 13 radiomic features were selected.
  • The Rad_Combined model (clinical, CMR, radiomics) achieved AUCs of 0.836 (training) and 0.835 (testing).
  • High-risk patients identified by Rad_Combined had significantly shorter survival (HR=7.74, P<0.001; HR=4.84, P<0.001).

Conclusions

  • The Rad_Combined model demonstrates effectiveness in DCM risk stratification.
  • This radiomics approach can aid clinical decision-making for DCM patients.

1

Dilated cardiomyopathy, or DCM, is a progressive myocardial disorder characterized by ventricular chamber dilation and contractile dysfunction.EtiologyVarious factors can cause DCM, including hypertension and heavy alcohol intake, which contribute to the weakening and enlargement of the heart muscle. Viral infections, such as Coxsackievirus B, adenoviruses, and influenza, can lead to DCM by causing inflammation and damage to heart tissue. Certain chemotherapeutic agents, including daunorubicin,...

Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is a rare heart muscle disease characterized by impaired ventricular filling due to stiffened ventricular walls, leading to significant diastolic dysfunction.EtiologyRestrictive cardiomyopathy can arise from both inherited and acquired diseases, many of which are systemic. It is categorized into four main types: infiltrative, storage, non-infiltrative, and endomyocardial diseases.Infiltrative diseases, such as amyloidosis, lead to RCM by depositing amyloid...

The most common cardiovascular diagnostic test is an X-ray. It produces images of the heart, blood vessels, and adjacent structures.
Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...

Mitral stenosis is a heart condition in which the mitral valve, which allows blood to flow from the left atrium to the left ventricle, becomes narrowed or stenotic. This narrowing hinders blood flow and leads to clinical symptoms requiring specific medical evaluations and management strategies. The following overview outlines the clinical symptoms, assessments, diagnostic findings, prevention methods, and treatments for mitral stenosis.Clinical ManifestationsDyspnea (shortness of breath): This...

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,...

Calcium-Scoring CT ScanA calcium-scoring CT scan, also known as coronary artery calcium (CAC) scan, detects calcium deposits in the coronary arteries. This test assesses the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD), which can lead to cardiovascular events such as angina, heart failure, and sudden cardiac arrest.A calcium-scoring CT scan is generally recommended for individuals at intermediate risk of CAD without symptoms. It includes:Men aged 40-75 and women aged 50-75: Especially those with a...
