概括
这项研究引入了一种自由呼吸心血管成像技术,平衡阶段平衡T1放松增强稳定状态 (bT1RESS),在对比剂施用后很长时间后能够进行诊断质量扫描. 这种高效的方法可以进行全面的胸腔血管和心脏评估.
科学领域:
- 心血管成像 - 心血管成像
- 磁共振成像是一种磁共振成像技术.
背景情况:
- 由于图像质量恶化,传统的CTA和CEMRA受限于短的对比后扫描窗口.
- 平衡阶段平衡的T1放松增强稳定状态 (bT1RESS) 已先前开发用于屏息CEMRA,延长了有用的扫描时间.
- 实现了bT1RESS的自由呼吸版本,用于快速整胸成像.
研究的目的:
- 为了评估一个高效的,自由呼吸,导航门的全胸部 bT1RESS 序列用于心血管磁共振 (CMR) 成像.
- 评估bT1RESS的诊断质量和效率与标准后对比成像窗口相比.
主要方法:
- 34名患有心血管病症的患者接受了标准的CMR,再加上导航门的原型全胸 bT1RESS 序列.
- bT1RESS序列使用了2x2或3x2的GRAPPA加速.
- 对图像质量和体积数据进行了评估,并对不同加速度因子和对比后时间进行了比较.
主要成果:
- 扫描时间的中位数为1.25分钟 (3x2加速) 和2.21分钟 (2x2加速).
- 血池与肌肉信号强度比在对比测试后>20分钟时是<5分钟时的88%.
- 在所有情况下,图像质量都很好或很好,心室和心房体积的相关性很高.
结论:
- 自由呼吸,导航器控制的bT1RESS是一种高效和有用的CMR技术.
- 诊断质量的扫描是可以实现的,无论对比后的时间,允许对胸腔血管和心脏的体积评估.
- 该技术的简短扫描和重建时间促进了将其集成到标准的CMR协议中,并有可能进行3D功能评估.

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System V: CT

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...

Radiological investigations are paramount in the diagnosis and management of various pulmonary diseases. Two essential investigations are the Pulmonary Angiogram and the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Scan.
Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
