Multimodality Imaging in Congenital Heart Disease: an Update.

ABSTRACT: The increasing number of survivors of congenital heart disease (CHD) has been paralleled by advancement of imaging modalities used for the ongoing assessment of these patients. There has been a large body of literature describing new approaches to non-invasive assessment of CHD. We will review new applications of well established as well as novel techniques for the management and understanding of CHD.

Imaging of cerebral complications of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in infants with congenital heart disease - ultrasound with multimodality correlation.

Project description:Cranial ultrasound on neonatal intensive care units is generally performed by intensive care physicians, but radiologists often provide this crucial bedside test to children on specialist paediatric cardiac intensive care units. On a paediatric cardiac intensive care unit, complex congenital cardiac conditions are commonly encountered in both pre- and postoperative scenarios, often with the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), which both increases the risks of a number of neurologic complications and results in significant changes in vascular physiology. The aim of this pictorial essay is to discuss cranial ultrasound technique, demonstrate the changes in Doppler flow profiles resulting from veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and congenital cardiac conditions, and illustrate commonly encountered intracranial complications of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support in congenital cardiac care.

3D Whole Heart Imaging for Congenital Heart Disease.

Project description:Three-dimensional (3D) whole heart techniques form a cornerstone in cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging of congenital heart disease (CHD). It offers significant advantages over other CHD imaging modalities and techniques: no ionizing radiation; ability to be run free-breathing; ECG-gated dual-phase imaging for accurate measurements and tissue properties estimation; and higher signal-to-noise ratio and isotropic voxel resolution for multiplanar reformatting assessment. However, there are limitations, such as potentially long acquisition times with image quality degradation. Recent advances in and current applications of 3D whole heart imaging in CHD are detailed, as well as future directions.

Lymphatic Imaging and Intervention in Congenital Heart Disease.

Project description:The lymphatic system plays a central role in some of the most devastating complications associated with congenital heart defects. Diseases like protein-losing enteropathy, plastic bronchitis, postoperative chylothorax, and chylous ascites are now proven to be lymphatic in origin. Novel imaging modalities, most notably, noncontrast magnetic resonance lymphangiography and dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance lymphangiography, can now depict lymphatic anatomy and function in all major lymphatic compartments and are essential for modern therapy planning. Based on the new pathophysiologic understanding of lymphatic flow disorders, innovative minimally invasive procedures have been invented during the last few years with promising results. Abnormal lymphatic flow can now be redirected with catheter-based interventions like thoracic duct embolization, selective lymphatic duct embolization, and liver lymphatic embolization. Lymphatic drainage can be improved through surgical or interventional techniques such as thoracic duct decompression or lympho-venous anastomosis.

Multimodality imaging in the diagnostic approach to a patient with carcinoid heart disease involving four heart valves

Project description:Abstract Carcinoid heart disease is a rare condition that occurs in less than half of patients with carcinoid syndrome. The disease mainly affects right‐sided heart valves; however, in 5%–10%, it can also involve left‐sided valves. This case illustrates the most complicated form of the disease involving four heart valves. The use of multimodality imaging in diagnosing and managing patients with systemic diseases involving the heart is of great importance and may improve the patients' survival and quality of life.

State-of-the-art CT imaging techniques for congenital heart disease.

Project description:CT is increasingly being used for evaluating the cardiovascular structures and airways in the patients with congenital heart disease. Multi-slice CT has traditionally been used for the evaluation of the extracardiac vascular and airway abnormalities because of its inherent high spatial resolution and excellent air-tissue contrast. Recent developments in CT technology primarily by reducing the cardiac motion and the radiation dose usage in congenital heart disease evaluation have helped expand the indications for CT usage. Tracheobronchomalacia associated with congenital heart disease can be evaluated with cine CT. Intravenous contrast injection should be tailored to unequivocally demonstrate cardiovascular abnormalities. Knowledge of the state-of-the-art CT imaging techniques that are used for evaluating congenital heart disease is helpful not only for planning and performing CT examinations, but also for interpreting and presenting the CT image findings that consequently guide the proper medical and surgical management.

Array CGH in congenital heart disease

Project description:Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most frequent birth defect and affects nearly 1% of newborns. The etiology of CHD is largely unknown and only a small percentage can be assigned to environmental risk factors such as maternal diseases or exposure to mutagenic agents during pregnancy. Chromosomal imbalances have been identified in many forms of syndromic CHD, but next to nothing is known about the impact of DNA copy number changes in non-syndromic CHD. Here we present a sub-megabase resolution array CGH screen of a cohort with CHD as the sole abnormality at the time of diagnosis. Keywords: array CGH In this BAC array CGH study 104 patients with congenital heart disease and some of their parents were screened for DNA copy number changes at submegabase resolution. No dye swap was performed.

NK2 model of congenital heart disease

Project description:Lack of the conserved NK2-domain of the cardiac transcription factor Nkx2.5 causes multiple heart defects . The NK2 family of homeobox genes constitutes a family of transcription factors that play an important role in different developmental processes. Members of this group are characterized by two highly conserved protein domains: the homeodomain, conferring DNA binding activity, and the NK2-specific domain (NK2-SD) of yet unknown function. One of the best characterized members of this group is the early cardiogenic marker Nkx2.5. Loss of function of Nkx2.5 leads to embryonic lethality around E10.5 due to an arrest of heart development at the looping stage. We have further dissected the function of Nkx2.5 in vivo by creating a knockout mouse line harboring an in frame deletion of the NK2-SD by Cre/loxP mediated excision. Homozygous mutant mice die at E14.5 due to severe cardiac malformations, e.g. common AV canal, DORV, and VSD. Lack of the NK2-SD leads to downregulation of the ventricular markers MLC-2v and Irx4 specifically in the right ventricle, and is accompanied with reduced right ventricular function. This function of Nkx2.5 seems to be independent of its ability to bind target DNA, since lack of the NK2-SD does not alter the DNA binding activity of Csx/Nkx2.5 in vitro. Heterozygous mutant mice show a spectrum of cardiac defects related to cardiac septation and valve morphogenesis, but lack conduction system defects as reported for heterozygous Nkx2.5 mice. The phenotype observed in NK2-SD mutant mice shows that Nkx2.5 is not only crucial during early steps of cardiogenesis but also plays an important role at later developmental stages. Embryos were isolated at embryonic day 12.5. The entire embryo heart was taken and isolated in ice-cold PBS and immediately frozen on dry-ice. Total RNA was extracted from pooled samples of wildtype, heterozygous and mutant embryos. Keywords = congenital heart disease, Csx, Nkx2.5 Keywords: other
