Prediction of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Response in Dilated Cardiomyopathy Using Vortex Flow Mapping on Cine Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

ABSTRACT: Background: We investigated the association between left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF) and vortex flow (VF), and whether cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) response can be predicted using VF mapping (VFM) in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Methods?and?Results: Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging data for 20 patients with heart failure (HF) with LVEF ?40% and 25 patients with DCM with LVEF <40%, scheduled for CRT, were retrospectively analyzed. The maximum VF (MVF) on short-axis, long-axis and 4-chamber LV cine imaging were calculated using VFM. Summed MVF was used as a representative value for each case and was significantly greater for patients with DCM than for patients with HF with LVEF ?40% (25.2±19.2% vs. 12.1±15.4%, P<0.005). Summed MVF was significantly greater for CRT responders (n=12, 35.8±22.7%) than for non-responders (n=13, 15.8±8.7%, P=0.04) during the mean follow-up period of 38.4 months after CRT. Patients with summed MVF ?31.3% had a significantly higher major adverse cardiac event-free rate than those with MVF <31.3% (log-rank=4.51, P<0.05). Conclusions: On VFM analysis, LV VF interrupted efficient ejection in HF. Summed MVF can predict CRT response in DCM.

Project description:ObjectivesHypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) often requires repeated enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging to detect fibrosis. We aimed to develop a practical model based on cine imaging to help identify patients with high risk of fibrosis and screen out patients without fibrosis to avoid unnecessary injection of contrast.MethodsA total of 273 patients with HCM were divided into training and test sets at a ratio of 7:3. Logistic regression analysis was used to find predictive image features to construct CMR model. Radiomic features were derived from the maximal wall thickness (MWT) slice and entire left ventricular (LV) myocardium. Extreme gradient boosting was used to build radiomic models. Integrated models were established by fusing image features and radiomic models. The model performance was validated in the test set and assessed by ROC and calibration curve and decision curve analysis (DCA).ResultsWe established five prediction models, including CMR, R1 (based on the MWT slice), R2 (based on the entire LV myocardium), and two integrated models (ICMR+R1 and ICMR+R2). In the test set, ICMR+R2 model had an excellent AUC value (0.898), diagnostic accuracy (89.02%), sensitivity (92.54%), and F1 score (93.23%) in identifying patients with positive late gadolinium enhancement. The calibration plots and DCA indicated that ICMR+R2 model was well-calibrated and presented a better net benefit than other models.ConclusionsA predictive model that fused image and radiomic features from the entire LV myocardium had good diagnostic performance, robustness, and clinical utility.Key points• Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is prone to fibrosis, requiring patients to undergo repeated enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance imaging to detect fibrosis over their lifetime follow-up. • A predictive model based on the entire left ventricular myocardium outperformed a model based on a slice of the maximal wall thickness. • A predictive model that fused image and radiomic features from the entire left ventricular myocardium had excellent diagnostic performance, robustness, and clinical utility.

Project description:PurposeCurrent cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) examinations require expert planning, multiple breath holds, and 2D imaging. To address this, we sought to develop and validate a comprehensive free-breathing 3D cine function and flow CMR examination using a steady-state free precession (SSFP) sequence to depict anatomy fused with a spatially registered phase contrast (PC) sequence for blood flow analysis.MethodsIn a prospective study, 25 patients underwent a CMR examination which included a 3D cine SSFP sequence and a 3D cine PC (also known as 4D flow) sequence acquired during free-breathing and after the administration of a gadolinium-based contrast agent. Both 3D sequences covered the heart and mediastinum, and used retrospective vectorcardiogram gating (20 phases/beat interpolated to 30 phases/beat) and prospective respiratory motion compensation confining data acquisition to end-expiration. Cardiovascular measurements derived from the 3D cine SSFP and PC images were then compared with those from standard 2D imaging.ResultsAll 3D cine SSFP and PC acquisitions were completed successfully. The mean time for the 3D cine sequences including prescription was shorter than that for the corresponding 2D sequences (21 min vs. 36 min, P-value <0.001). Left and right ventricular end-diastolic volumes and stroke volumes by 3D cine SSFP were slightly smaller than those from 2D cine SSFP (all biases ≤5%). The blood flow measurements from the 3D and 2D sequences had close agreement in the ascending aorta (bias -2.6%) but main pulmonary artery flow was lower with the 3D cine sequence (bias -11.2%).ConclusionCompared to the conventional 2D cine approach, a comprehensive 3D cine function and flow examination was faster and yielded slightly lower left and right end-diastolic volumes, stroke volumes, and main pulmonary artery blood flow. This free-breathing 3D cine approach allows flexible post-examination data analysis and has the potential to make examinations more comfortable for patients and easier to perform for the operator.
