Myocardial perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance: optimized dual sequence and reconstruction for quantification
BACKGROUND Quantification of myocardial blood flow requires knowledge of the amount of contrast agent in the myocardial tissue and the arterial input function (AIF) driving the delivery of this contrast agent. Accurate quantification is challenged by the lack of linearity between the measured signal and contrast agent concentration. This work characterizes sources of non-linearity and presents ...
متن کاملQuantification of myocardial perfusion by cardiovascular magnetic resonance
The potential of contrast-enhanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) for a quantitative assessment of myocardial perfusion has been explored for more than a decade now, with encouraging results from comparisons with accepted "gold standards", such as microspheres used in the physiology laboratory. This has generated an increasing interest in the requirements and methodological approaches ...
متن کاملQuantification of myocardial perfusion with self-gated cardiovascular magnetic resonance
BACKGROUND Current myocardial perfusion measurements make use of an ECG-gated pulse sequence to track the uptake and washout of a gadolinium-based contrast agent. The use of a gated acquisition is a problem in situations with a poor ECG signal. Recently, an ungated perfusion acquisition was proposed but it is not known how accurately quantitative perfusion estimates can be made from such datase...
متن کاملMyocardial perfusion SPECT: Perfusion quantification
Different software tools for quantification of myocardial perfusion SPECT (MPS) studies are routinely used. Several perfusion parameters can be computed automatically. Interpretation of the MPS should start with visual inspection of the rotating planar images, visual analysis of reconstructed SPECT slices and then quantitative analysis to confirm the visual impression. Quantification should be...
متن کاملQuantification of myocardial perfusion and myocardial perfusion reserve by positron emission tomography and cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging.
Physiology and pathophysiology of myocardial perfusion regulation and of myocardial perfusion reserve. Because of the high energy demands of myocardial contraction, the heart is critically dependent on oxidative metabolism, and insufficient myocardial oxygen delivery (i.e., ischemia) results almost instantaneously in contractile and electrical dysfunction. Because myocardial oxygen extraction i...
