Quantitative cardiac MR assessment of left ventricular diastology
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background Cardiac MR (CMR) is the accepted gold standard for the assessment of myocardial scar and biventricular systolic function. Bright blood cine imaging with phase-contrast mitral inflow assessment has shown promise for the evaluation of left ventricular (LV) diastology. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of LV diastolic function grading by CMR, using Doppler echocardiography as the reference standard. We hypothesize that quantitative CMR analysis of diastolic function coupled with left atrial volume (LAV) assessment is accurate in characterizing LV diastology.

Ultrafast Cine cardiac MRI in the assessment of left ventricular diastology
Methods 18 self-reported healthy volunteers (12 men, average age 35 years) and 6 patients with diastolic dysfunction (4 men, average age 52 years) underwent cardiac MRI on an investigational 1.5T cardiovascular magnet (Aera, Siemens Medical Solutions, Erlangen Germany). All subjects underwent ultrafast cine MR imaging in four and two chamber orientations (nominal TR 5.5 15.3 msec, heart rate de...
متن کاملPrognostic importance of exercise-induced changes in mitral regurgitation in patients with chronic ischemic left ventricular dysfunction.
BACKGROUND In the post-myocardial infarction phase, mortality risk is related to the severity of mitral regurgitation (MR). Ischemic MR is a dynamic condition that can be studied during exercise. Whether the assessment of exercise-induced changes in the degree of MR provides prognostic information is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS Ninety-eight consecutive patients with chronic ischemic left ven...

Background: Cardiac connective tissue dysplasia syndrome consists of mitral valve prolapse (MVP), anomalously located chordae tendinae of the left ventricle, or a combination of the two. MVP is marked by the displacement of an abnormally thickened mitral valve leaflet into the left atrium during systole. The nonclassic form of MVP carries a low risk of complications. Patients with severe classi...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare the left ventricular parameters obtained from multi-detector row computed tomography (MDCT) studies with two-dimensional echocardiography (2DE), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which is accepted as the gold standard in the evaluation of left ventricular functions. The study also aimed to evaluate whether or not there is a relationship be...
