Front Cardiovasc Med 2024; 10:1292039. [PMID: 38274314 PMCID: PMC10808650 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1292039] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Imaging fusion technology is promising as it is radiation and contrast sparing. Herein, we compare conventional biplane angiography to multimodality image fusion with live fluoroscopy using two-dimensional (2D)-three-dimensional (3D) registration (MMIF2D-3D) and assess MMIF2D-3D impact on radiation exposure and contrast volume during cardiac catheterization of patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). Methods We matched institutional MMIF2D-3D procedures and controls according to patient characteristics (body mass index, age, and gender) and the seven procedure-type subgroups. Then, we matched the number of tests and controls per subgroup using chronological ordering or propensity score matching. Subsequently, we combined the matched subgroups into larger subgroups of similar procedure type, keeping subgroups with at least 10 test and 10 control cases. Air kerma (AK) and dose area product (DAP) were normalized by body weight (BW), product of body weight and fluoroscopy time (BW × FT), or product of body weight and number of frames (BW × FR), and stratified by acquisition plane and irradiation event type (fluoroscopy or acquisition). Three senior interventionists evaluated the relevance of MMIF2D-3D (5-point Likert scale). Results The Overall group consisted of 54 MMIF2D-3D cases. The combined and matched subgroups were pulmonary artery stenting (StentPUL), aorta angioplasty (PlastyAO), pulmonary artery angioplasty (PlastyPUL), or a combination of the latter two (Plasty). The FT of the lateral plane reduced significantly by 69.6% for the Overall MMIF2D-3D population. AKBW and DAPBW decreased, respectively, by 43.9% and 39.3% (Overall group), 49.3% and 54.9% (PlastyAO), and 36.7% and 44.4% for the Plasty subgroup. All the aforementioned reductions were statistically significant except for DAPBW in the Overall and Plasty (sub)groups. The decrease of AKBW and DAPBW in the StentPUL and PlastyPUL subgroups was not statistically significant. The decrease in the median values of the weight-normalized contrast volume (CMCBW) in all five subgroups was not significant. Cardiologists considered MMIF2D-3D very useful with a median score of 4. Conclusion In our institution, MMIF2D-3D overall enabled significant AKBW reduction during the catheterization of CHD patients and was mainly driven by reduced FT in the lateral plane. We observed significant AKBW reduction in the Plasty and PlastyAO subgroups and DAPBW reduction in the PlastyAO subgroup. However, the decrease in CMCBW was not significant.

Abstract
Multi-modality cardiac imaging plays a key role in the management of patients with cardiovascular diseases. It allows a combination of complementary anatomical, morphological and functional information, increases diagnosis accuracy, and improves the efficacy of cardiovascular interventions and clinical outcomes. Fully-automated processing and quantitative analysis of multi-modality cardiac images could have a direct impact on clinical research and evidence-based patient management. However, these require overcoming significant challenges including inter-modality misalignment and finding optimal methods to integrate information from different modalities. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive review of multi-modality imaging in cardiology, the computing methods, the validation strategies, the related clinical workflows and future perspectives. For the computing methodologies, we have a favored focus on the three tasks, i.e., registration, fusion and segmentation, which generally involve multi-modality imaging data, either combining information from different modalities or transferring information across modalities. The review highlights that multi-modality cardiac imaging data has the potential of wide applicability in the clinic, such as trans-aortic valve implantation guidance, myocardial viability assessment, and catheter ablation therapy and its patient selection. Nevertheless, many challenges remain unsolved, such as missing modality, modality selection, combination of imaging and non-imaging data, and uniform analysis and representation of different modalities. There is also work to do in defining how the well-developed techniques fit in clinical workflows and how much additional and relevant information they introduce. These problems are likely to continue to be an active field of research and the questions to be answered in the future.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging provides radiation-free, 3-dimensional soft tissue visualization with adjunct hemodynamic data, making it a promising candidate for image-guided transcatheter interventions. This review focuses on the benefits and background of real-time magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided cardiac catheterization, guidance on starting a clinical program, and recent research developments. RECENT FINDINGS Interventional cardiac magnetic resonance (iCMR) has an established track record with the first entirely MRI-guided cardiac catheterization for congenital heart disease reported nearly 20 years ago. Since then, many centers have embarked upon clinical iCMR programs primarily performing diagnostic MRI-guided cardiac catheterization. There have also been limited reports of successful real-time MRI-guided transcatheter interventions. Growing experience in performing cardiac catheterization in the magnetic resonance environment has facilitated practical workflows appropriate for efficiency-focused cardiac catheterization laboratories. Most exciting developments in imaging technology, MRI-compatible equipment and MRI-guided novel transcatheter interventions have been limited to preclinical research. Many of these research developments are ready for clinical translation. With increasing iCMR clinical experience and translation of preclinical research innovations, the time to make the leap to radiation-free procedures is now.

Abstract
The number and complexity of percutaneous interventions for the treatment of structural heart disease has increased in clinical practice in parallel with the development of new imaging technologies, in order to render these interventions safer and more accurate. Complementary imaging modalities are commonly used, but they require additional mental reconstruction and effort by the interventional team. The concept of fusion imaging, where two different modalities are fused in real time and on a single monitor, aims to solve these limitations. This is an important tool to guide percutaneous interventions, enabling a good visualization of catheters, guidewires and devices employed, with enhanced spatial resolution and anatomical definition. It also allows the marking of anatomical reference points of interest for the procedure. Some studies show decreased procedural time and total radiation dose with fusion imaging; however, there is a need to obtain data with more robust scientific methodology to assess the impact of this technology in clinical practice. The aim of this review is to describe the concept and basic principles of fusion imaging, its main clinical applications and some considerations about the promising future of this imaging technology.

Abstract
In recent years, interventional cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (iCMR) has evolved from attractive theory to clinical routine at several centers. Real-time cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR fluoroscopy) adds value by combining soft-tissue visualization, concurrent hemodynamic measurement, and freedom from radiation. Clinical iCMR applications are expanding because of advances in catheter devices and imaging. In the near future, iCMR promises novel procedures otherwise unsafe under standalone X-Ray guidance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine whether X-ray fused with MRI (XFM) is beneficial for select transcatheter congenital heart disease interventions. BACKGROUND Complex transcatheter interventions often require three-dimensional (3D) soft tissue imaging guidance. Fusion imaging with live X-ray fluoroscopy can potentially improve and simplify procedures. METHODS Patients referred for select congenital heart disease interventions were prospectively enrolled. Cardiac MRI data was overlaid on live fluoroscopy for procedural guidance. Likert scale operator assessments of value were recorded. Fluoroscopy time, radiation exposure, contrast dose, and procedure time were compared to matched cases from our institutional experience. RESULTS Forty-six patients were enrolled. Pre-catheterization, same day cardiac MRI findings indicated intervention should be deferred in nine patients. XFM-guided cardiac catheterization was performed in 37 (median age 8.7 years [0.5-63 years]; median weight 28 kg [5.6-110 kg]) with the following prespecified indications: pulmonary artery (PA) stenosis (n = 13), aortic coarctation (n = 12), conduit stenosis/insufficiency (n = 9), and ventricular septal defect (n = 3). Diagnostic catheterization showed intervention was not indicated in 12 additional cases. XFM-guided intervention was performed in the remaining 25. Fluoroscopy time was shorter for XFM-guided intervention cases compared to matched controls. There was no significant difference in radiation dose area product, contrast volume, or procedure time. Operator Likert scores indicated XFM provided useful soft tissue guidance in all cases and was never misleading. CONCLUSIONS XFM provides operators with meaningful three-dimensional soft tissue data and reduces fluoroscopy time in select congenital heart disease interventions.

Abstract
Cardiac catheterization is an integral part of medical management for pediatric patients with congenital heart disease. Owing to age and lack of cooperation in children who need this procedure, general anesthesia is typically required. These patients have increased anesthesia risk secondary to cardiac pathology. Furthermore, multiple catheterization procedures result in exposure to harmful ionizing radiation. Magnetic resonance imaging-guided right-heart catheterization offers decreased radiation exposure and diagnostic imaging benefits over traditional fluoroscopy but potentially increases anesthetic complexity and risk. We describe our early experience with anesthetic techniques and challenges for pediatric magnetic resonance imaging-guided right-heart catheterization.

Abstract
Diagnostic and interventional cardiac catheterization is routinely used in the diagnosis and treatment of congenital heart disease. There are well-established concerns regarding the risk of radiation exposure to patients and staff, particularly in children given the cumulative effects of repeat exposure. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers the advantage of being able to provide better soft tissue visualization, tissue characterization, and quantification of ventricular volumes and vascular flow. Initial work using MRI catheterization employed fusion of x-ray and MRI techniques, with x-ray fluoroscopy to guide catheter placement and subsequent MRI assessment for anatomical and hemodynamic assessment. Image overlay of 3D previously acquired MRI datasets with live fluoroscopic imaging has also been used to guide catheter procedures.Hybrid x-ray and MRI-guided catheterization paved the way for clinical application and validation of this technique in the assessment of pulmonary vascular resistance and pharmacological stress studies. Purely MRI-guided catheterization also proved possible with passive catheter tracking. First-in-man MRI-guided cardiac catheter interventions were possible due to the development of MRI-compatible guidewires, but halted due to guidewire limitations.More recent developments in passive and active catheter tracking have led to improved visualization of catheters for MRI-guided catheterization. Improvements in hardware and software have also increased image quality and scanning times with better interactive tools for the operator in the MRI catheter suite to navigate through the anatomy as required in real time. This has expanded to MRI-guided electrophysiology studies and radiofrequency ablation in humans. Animal studies show promise for the utility of MRI-guided interventional catheterization. Ongoing investment and development of MRI-compatible guidewires will pave the way for MRI-guided diagnostic and interventional catheterization coming into the mainstream.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Optimal imaging is essential for catheter-based interventions in CHD. The three-dimensional models in volume-rendering technique currently in use are not standardised. This paper investigates the feasibility and impact of novel three-dimensional guidance with segmented and tessellated three-dimensional heart models in catheterisation of CHD. In addition, a nearly radiation-free two- to three-dimensional registration and a biplane overlay were used.Methods and resultsWe analysed 60 consecutive cases in which segmented tessellated three-dimensional heart models were merged with live fluoroscopy images and aligned using the tracheal bifurcation as a fiducial mark. The models were generated from previous MRI or CT by dedicated medical software. We chose the stereo-lithography format, as this promises advantage over volume-rendering-technique models regarding visualisation. Prospects, potential benefits, and accuracy of the two- to three-dimensional registration were rated separately by two paediatric interventionalists on a five-point Likert scale. Fluoroscopy time, radiation dose, and contrast dye consumption were evaluated. Over a 10-month study period, two- to three-dimensional image fusion was applied to 60 out of 354 cases. Of the 60 catheterisations, 73.3% were performed in the context of interventions. The accuracy of two- to three-dimensional registration was sufficient in all cases. Three-dimensional guidance was rated superior to conventional biplane imaging in all 60 cases. We registered significantly smaller amounts of used contrast dye (p<0.01), lower levels of radiation dose (p<0.02), and less fluoroscopy time (p<0.01) during interventions concerning the aortic arch compared with a control group. CONCLUSIONS Two- to three-dimensional image fusion can be applied successfully in most catheter-based interventions of CHD. Meshes in stereo-lithography format are accurate and base for standardised and reproducible three-dimensional models.

Abstract
Since 1929, when the first cardiac catheterization was safely performed in a human by Dr. Werner Forssmann (on himself), there has been a rapid progression of cardiac catheterization techniques and technologies. Today, these advances allow us to treat a wide variety of patients with congenital heart disease using minimally invasive techniques; from fetus to infants to adults, and from simple to complex congenital cardiac lesions. In this article, we will explore some of the exciting advances in cardiac catheterization for the treatment of congenital heart disease, including transcatheter valve implantation, hybrid procedures, biodegradable technologies, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided catheterization. Additionally, we will discuss innovations in imaging in the catheterization laboratory, including 3D rotational angiography (3DRA), fusion imaging, and 3D printing, which help to make innovative interventional approaches possible.

Abstract
In X-ray fluoroscopy, static overlays are used to visualize soft tissue. We propose a system for cardiac and respiratory motion compensation of these overlays. It consists of a 3-D motion model created from real-time magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Multiple sagittal slices are acquired and retrospectively stacked to consistent 3-D volumes. Slice stacking considers cardiac information derived from the ECG and respiratory information extracted from the images. Additionally, temporal smoothness of the stacking is enhanced. Motion is estimated from the MR volumes using deformable 3-D/3-D registration. The motion model itself is a linear direct correspondence model using the same surrogate signals as slice stacking. In X-ray fluoroscopy, only the surrogate signals need to be extracted to apply the motion model and animate the overlay in real time. For evaluation, points are manually annotated in oblique MR slices and in contrast-enhanced X-ray images. The 2-D Euclidean distance of these points is reduced from 3.85 to 2.75 mm in MR and from 3.0 to 1.8 mm in X-ray compared with the static baseline. Furthermore, the motion-compensated overlays are shown qualitatively as images and videos.

Abstract
The field of percutaneous structural heart interventions has grown tremendously in recent years. This growth has fueled the development of new imaging protocols and technologies in parallel to help facilitate these minimally-invasive procedures. Fusion imaging is an exciting new technology that combines the strength of 2 imaging modalities and has the potential to improve procedural planning and the safety of many commonly performed transcatheter procedures. In this review we discuss the basic concepts of fusion imaging along with the relative strengths and weaknesses of static vs dynamic fusion imaging modalities. This review will focus primarily on echocardiographic-fluoroscopic fusion imaging and its application in commonly performed transcatheter structural heart procedures.

Abstract
We report initial experience with novel three-dimensional (3D) image fusion software for guidance of transcatheter interventions in congenital heart disease. Developments in fusion imaging have facilitated the integration of 3D roadmaps from computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging datasets. The latest software allows live fusion of two-dimensional (2D) fluoroscopy with pre-registered 3D roadmaps. We reviewed all cardiac catheterizations guided with this software (Philips VesselNavigator). Pre-catheterization imaging and catheterization data were collected focusing on fusion of 3D roadmap, intervention guidance, contrast and radiation exposure. From 09/2015 until 06/2016, VesselNavigator was applied in 34 patients for guidance (n = 28) or planning (n = 6) of cardiac catheterization. In all 28 patients successful 2D-3D registration was performed. Bony structures combined with the cardiovascular silhouette were used for fusion in 26 patients (93%), calcifications in 9 (32%), previously implanted devices in 8 (29%) and low-volume contrast injection in 7 patients (25%). Accurate initial 3D roadmap alignment was achieved in 25 patients (89%). Six patients (22%) required realignment during the procedure due to distortion of the anatomy after introduction of stiff equipment. Overall, VesselNavigator was applied successfully in 27 patients (96%) without any complications related to 3D image overlay. VesselNavigator was useful in guidance of nearly all of cardiac catheterizations. The combination of anatomical markers and low-volume contrast injections allowed reliable 2D-3D registration in the vast majority of patients.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) is an important imaging modality in the evaluation of congenital heart diseases (CHD). CMR has several strengths including good spatial and temporal resolutions, wide field-of-view, and multi-planar imaging capabilities. CMR provides significant advantages for imaging in CHD through its ability to measure function, flow and vessel sizes, create three-dimensional reconstructions, and perform tissue characterization, all in a single imaging study. Thus, CMR is the most comprehensive imaging modality available today for the evaluation of CHD. Newer MRI sequences and post-processing tools will allow further development of quantitative methods of analysis, and opens the door for risk stratification in CHD. CMR also can interface with computer modeling, 3D printing, and other methods of understanding the complex anatomic and physiologic relationships in CHD.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The focus of cardiac catheterization has changed from principally a diagnostic procedure to providing therapeutic options at various stages of childhood and adult congenital heart disease. The paediatric cardiac catheterization laboratory functions as a 'satellite' operating room. Combined ('hybrid') procedures with interventional cardiologists and cardiac surgeons present additional challenges for anaesthesia. The increased patient and procedure complexity represents higher risk for anaesthesia-related adverse events. RECENT FINDINGS This review concentrates on the recent efforts to determine these patient and procedure-related risks. Multicentre registries have been developed, generating information regarding adverse events and patient outcomes. Standardized adverse events ratios allow comparisons between institutions and providers. Models to identify high-risk groups have been developed. SUMMARY Advances in paediatric cardiac catheterization have created significant challenges for delivering anaesthesia in this environment. Anaesthetists need to have an integral role in the cardiac catheterization team, understanding and anticipating the risks for patients and leading the organization of workflow. Techniques used to improve systems in the operating room have been introduced to the cardiac catheterization laboratory to promote patient safety.

Abstract
Interventional cardiovascular magnetic resonance (iCMR) promises to enable radiation-free catheterization procedures and to enhance contemporary image guidance for structural heart and electrophysiological interventions. However, clinical translation of exciting pre-clinical interventions has been limited by availability of devices that are safe to use in the magnetic resonance (MR) environment. We discuss challenges and solutions for clinical translation, including MR-conditional and MR-safe device design, and how to configure an interventional suite. We review the recent advances that have already enabled diagnostic MR right heart catheterization and simple electrophysiologic ablation to be performed in humans and explore future clinical applications.
