Native T1 mapping versus CMR Feature Tracking (FT) derived strain analysis for the assessment of cardiac disease manifestation in Anderson Fabry
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background Cardiovascular sequelae represent a leading cause of mortality in Fabry disease. Early detection of cardiac involvement is therefore a subject of considerable interest. Low native T1 values have been shown to be associated with echocardiographic markers of early systolic and diastolic dysfunction, even in those without left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), and conceptually could be used to optimise the efficacy of Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT). The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of both, native T1 and feature tracking CMR (FT-CMR) derived strain parameters, with maximal LV wall thickness and LVmass in Fabry’s as a clinical marker of cardiac disease manifestation.

Reproducibility of native myocardial T1 mapping in the assessment of Fabry disease and its role in early detection of cardiac involvement by cardiovascular magnetic resonance
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) derived native myocardial T1 is decreased in patients with Fabry disease even before left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) occurs and may be the first non-invasive measure of myocyte sphingolipid storage. The relationship of native T1 lowering prior to hypertrophy and other candidate early phenotype markers are unknown. Furthermore, the reproducib...

Background Left ventricular myocardial motion analysis and the assessment of regional dysfunction are crucial for the detection and prognosis in different cardiac pathologies. Myocardial tagging (MT) is a cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) based method for tracking myocardial motion, which has been established as reference standard for assessment of strain. Currently, strain can also be assessed ...
متن کاملQuantification of myocardial deformation in children by cardiovascular magnetic resonance feature tracking: determination of reference values for left ventricular strain and strain rate
BACKGROUND The objective assessment of global and regional cardiac function in children has shown to be clinically relevant but is challenging to conduct. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has emerged as a valuable diagnostic modality especially in patients with cardiomyopathy or congenital heart disease. However, data on the normal cardiac deformation in children assessed by CMR is lacki...
متن کاملNative T1 lowering in iron overload and Anderson Fabry disease; a novel and early marker of disease
Background T1 mapping is a powerful technique for ECV quantification; native T1 has been shown to increase in a variety of conditions including oedema, fibrosis and amyloid. Iron and fat lower T1. Anderson Fabry disease (AFD) is a fat storage disease, cardiac iron occurs in transfusion dependent patients. We hypothesised that T1 lowering would diagnose early cardiac involvement, track disease s...
متن کاملQuantification of biventricular myocardial function using cardiac magnetic resonance feature tracking, endocardial border delineation and echocardiographic speckle tracking in patients with repaired tetralogy of fallot and healthy controls
BACKGROUND Parameters of myocardial deformation have been suggested to be superior to conventional measures of ventricular function in patients with tetralogy of Fallot (ToF), but have required non-routine, tagged cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) techniques. We assessed biventricular myocardial function using CMR cine-based feature tracking (FT) and compared it to speckle tracking echoca...
