Evaluation of diastolic function by cardiac MRI in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: validation of 3D model-based analysis of left ventricular filling curves
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background Diastolic function (DF) is not routinely assessed by cardiac MR (CMR), but is critical for assessment of common disease states such as heart failure or hypertrophy. At present, special pulse sequences (tagging, phase contrast) are necessary for CMR for diastolic function assessment. The purpose of this study was to assess cine CMR volumetric assessment of DF using a 3D modelbased analysis, in reference to 2D phase contrast and echocardiography (echo).

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance evaluation for left ventricular diastolic function: analysis of time-volume curve
Background Although cine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is considered the gold standard for evaluation of left ventricular (LV) volumes, mass, and systolic function, assessment of diastolic filling is still challenging. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of LV mass on diastolic function by time-volume curve obtained from cine MRI in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) or hy...
متن کاملDiastolic left ventricular functional indices: Comparison between gated myocardial perfusion SPECT and echocardiography
Introduction: Many patients have only diastolic dysfunction without any abnormality in systolic function. We compared cardiac diastolic parameters obtained by gated myocardial perfusion SPECT (Gated SPECT) with those evaluated by echocardiography. Methods: Forty-nine patients (aged 37-85 years, 19 males and 30 women) underwent Gated SPECT and echocardiogr...
متن کاملVarieties of right ventricular diastolic function in patients with non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
We examined whether differences in the location of myocardial hypertrophy influence the right ventricular diastolic function in patients with non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy using cineangiography. Biplane right ventriculography was performed in 34 subjects (normal = 14, asymmetric septal hypertrophy = 9, apical hypertrophy = 11) during cardiac catheterization. In patients with asymm...
متن کاملModification of abnormal left ventricular diastolic properties by nifedipine in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
The effect of nifedipine on left ventricular isovolumic relaxation and diastolic filling properties and systemic and left ventricular hemodynamics was studied in 15 patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. After nidefipine (10 mg sublingually), the prolonged left ventricular isovolumic relaxation time assessed by echocardiography decreased from 112 +/- 26 to 83 +/- 23 msec (p less than 0.0001...
متن کاملEvaluation of Cardiac Mitochondrial Function by a Nuclear Imaging Technique using Technetium-99m-MIBI Uptake Kinetics
Mitochondria play an important role in energy production for the cell. The proper function of a myocardial cell largely depends on the functional capacity of the mitochondria. Therefore it is necessary to establish a novel and reliable method for a non-invasive assessment of mitochondrial function and metabolism in humans. Although originally designed for evaluating myocardial perfusion, 99mTc...
