Inflow-weighted pulmonary perfusion: comparison between dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI versus perfusion scintigraphy in complex pulmonary circulation
BACKGROUND Due to the different properties of the contrast agents, the lung perfusion maps as measured by 99mTc-labeled macroaggregated albumin perfusion scintigraphy (PS) are not uncommonly discrepant from those measured by dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) using indicator-dilution analysis in complex pulmonary circulation. Since PS offers the pre-capillary perfusion of the first-pass tr...
متن کاملQuantitative myocardial perfusion analysis with a dual-bolus contrast-enhanced first-pass MRI technique in humans.
PURPOSE To compare fully quantitative and semiquantitative analysis of rest and stress myocardial blood flow (MBF) and myocardial perfusion reserve (MPR) using a dual-bolus first-pass perfusion MRI method in humans. MATERIALS AND METHODS Rest and dipyridamole stress perfusion imaging was performed on 10 healthy humans by administering gadolinium contrast using a dual-bolus protocol. Ventricul...
متن کاملT2* measurement during first-pass contrast-enhanced cardiac perfusion imaging.
First-pass contrast-enhanced (CE) myocardial perfusion imaging will experience T(2) (*) effects at peak concentrations of contrast agent. A reduction in the signal intensity of left ventricular (LV) blood due to T(2) (*) losses may effect estimates of the arterial input function (AIF) used for quantitative perfusion measurement. Imaging artifacts may also result from T(2) (*) losses as well as ...
متن کاملNonlinear myocardial signal intensity correction improves quantification of contrast-enhanced first-pass MR perfusion in humans.
PURPOSE To study the nonlinearity of myocardial signal intensity and gadolinium contrast concentration during first-pass perfusion MRI, and to compare quantitative perfusion estimates using nonlinear myocardial signal intensity correction. MATERIALS AND METHODS The nonlinearity of signal intensity and contrast concentration was simulated by magnetization modeling and evaluated in phantom meas...
متن کاملFirst-Pass Contrast-Enhanced Myocardial Perfusion MRI in Mice on a 3-T Clinical MR Scanner
First-pass contrast-enhanced myocardial perfusion MRI in rodents has so far not been possible due to the temporal and spatial resolution requirements. We developed a new first-pass perfusion MR method for rodent imaging on a clinical 3.0-T scanner (Philips Healthcare, Best, The Netherlands) that employed 10-fold k-space and time domain undersampling with constrained image reconstruction, using ...
