[PMID: 37681476 DOI: 10.1002/jmri.29003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2023] [Revised: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 08/24/2023] [Indexed: 09/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiac MRI feature-tracking (FT) with breath-holding (BH) cine balanced steady state free precession (bSSFP) imaging is well established. It is unclear whether FT-strain measurements can be reliably derived from free-breathing (FB) compressed sensing (CS) bSSFP imaging. PURPOSE To compare left ventricular (LV) strain analysis and image quality of an FB CS bSSFP cine sequence with that of a conventional BH bSSFP sequence in children. STUDY TYPE Prospective. SUBJECTS 40 children able to perform BHs (cohort 1 [12.1 ± 2.2 years]) and 17 children unable to perform BHs (cohort 2 [5.2 ± 1.8 years]). FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 3T, bSSFP sequence with and without CS. ASSESSMENT Acquisition times and image quality were assessed. LV myocardial deformation parameters were compared between BH cine and FB CS cine studies in cohort 1. Strain indices and image quality of FB CS cine studies were also assessed in cohort 2. Intraobserver and interobserver variability of strain parameters was determined. STATISTICAL TESTS Paired t-test, Wilcoxon signed-rank test, intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), and Bland-Altman analysis. A P-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS In cohort 1, the mean acquisition time of the FB CS cine study was significantly lower than for conventional BH cine study (15.6 s vs. 209.4 s). No significant difference were found in global circumferential strain rate (P = 0.089), global longitudinal strain rate (P = 0.366) and EuroCMR image quality scores (P = 0.128) between BH and FB sequences in cohort 1. The overall image quality score of FB CS cine in cohort 2 was 3.5 ± 0.5 with acquisition time of 14.7 ± 2.1 s. Interobserver and intraobserver variabilities were good to excellent (ICC = 0.810 to 0.943). DATA CONCLUSION FB CS cine imaging may be a promising alternative technique for strain assessment in pediatric patients with poor BH ability. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 1 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 1.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging protocols have been adapted to fit the needs for faster, more efficient acquisitions, resulting in the development of highly accelerated, compressed sensing-based (CS) sequences. The aim of this study was to evaluate intersoftware and interacquisition differences for postprocessing software applied to both CS and conventional cine sequences. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 106 individuals (66 healthy volunteers, 40 patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, 51% female, 38±17 y) underwent cardiac magnetic resonance at 3T with retrospectively gated conventional cine and CS sequences. Postprocessing was performed using 2 commercially available software solutions and 1 research prototype from 3 different developers. The agreement of clinical and feature-tracking strain parameters between software solutions and acquisition types was assessed by Bland-Altmann analyses and intraclass correlation coefficients. Differences between softwares and acquisitions were assessed using Kruskal-Wallis analysis of variances. In addition, receiver operating characteristic curve-derived cutoffs were used to evaluate whether sequence-specific cutoffs influence disease classification. RESULTS There were significant intersoftware ( P <0.002 for all except LV end-diastolic volume per body surface area) and interacquisition differences ( P <0.02 for all except end-diastolic volume per body surface area from Neosoft, left ventricular mass per body surface area from cvi42 and TrufiStrain and global circumferential strain from Neosoft). However, the intraclass correlation coefficients between acquisitions were strong-to-excellent for all parameters (all ≥0.81). In comparing individual softwares to a pooled mean, Bland-Altmann analyses revealed smaller magnitudes of bias for cine acquisition than for CS acquisition. In addition, the application of conventional cutoffs to CS measurements did not result in the false reclassification of patients. CONCLUSION Significantly lower magnitudes of strain and volumetric parameters were observed in retrospectively gated CS acquisitions, despite strong-to-excellent agreement amongst software solutions and acquisition types. It remains important to be aware of the acquisition type in the context of follow-up examinations, where different cutoffs might lead to misclassifications.

JOURNAL OF IMAGING INFORMATICS IN MEDICINE 2024:10.1007/s10278-024-01040-x. [PMID: 38388867 DOI: 10.1007/s10278-024-01040-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2023] [Revised: 01/31/2024] [Accepted: 02/01/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024]
Abstract
The aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of compressed sensing (CS) acceleration methods compared to conventional segmented cine (Seg) cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) for evaluating left ventricular (LV) function and strain by feature tracking (FT). In this prospective study, 45 healthy volunteers underwent CMR imaging used Seg, threefold (CS3), fourfold (CS4), and eightfold (CS8) CS acceleration. Cine images were scored for quality (1-5 scale). LV volumetric and functional parameters and global longitudinal (GLS), circumferential (GCS), and radial strains (GRS) were quantified. LV volumetric and functional parameters exhibited no differences between Seg and all CS cines (all P > 0.05). The strains were similar for Seg, CS3, and CS4 (all P > 0.05). Similarly, no significant differences were observed in GRS and GCS between Seg and CS8 (all P > 0.05), but the global longitudinal strain was significantly lower for CS8 versus Seg (P < 0.001). Image quality declined with CS acceleration, especially in long-axis views with CS8. CS cine MRI at acceleration factor 4 maintained good image quality and accurate measurements of LV function and strain, although there was a slight reduction in the quality of long-axis images and GLS with CS8. CS acceleration up to a factor of 4 enabled fast CMR evaluations, making it suitable for clinical use.

Abstract
ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility of 3D left ventricular global and regional strain by using one breath-hold (BH) compressed sensing cine (CSC) protocol and determine the agreement between CSC and conventional cine (CC) protocols.MethodsA total of 30 volunteers were enrolled in this study. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) images were acquired using a 1.436 T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system. The CSC protocols included one BH CSC and the shortest BH CSC protocols with different parameters and were only performed in short-axis (SA) view following CC protocols. Left ventricular (LV) end-diastole volume (EDV), end-systole volume (ESV), stroke volume (SV), and ejection fraction (EF) global and regional strain were calculated by CC, one BH CSC, and shortest BH CSC protocols. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and coefficient of variance (CV) of these parameters were used to determine the agreement between different acquisitions.ResultsThe agreement of all volumetric variables and EF between the CC protocol and one BH CSC protocol was excellent (ICC > 0.9). EDV, ESV, and SV between CC and shortest BH CSC protocols also had a remarkable coherence (ICC > 0.9). The agreement of 3D LV global strain assessment between CC protocol and one BH CSC protocol was good (ICC > 0.8). Most CVs of variables were also good (CV < 15%). ICCs of all variables were lower than 0.8. CVs of all parameters were higher than 15% except global longitudinal strain (GLS) between CC and shortest BH CSC protocols. The agreement of regional strain between CC and BH CSC protocols was heterogeneous (-0.2 < ICC < 0.7). Many variables of CVs were poor.ConclusionNotably, one BH CSC protocol can be used for 3D global strain analysis, along with a good correlation with the CC protocol. The regional strain should continue to be computed by the CC protocol due to poor agreement and a remarkable variation between the protocols. The shortest BH CSC protocol was insufficient to replace the CC protocol for 3D global and regional strain.

Compressed sensing acceleration of cardiac cine imaging allows reliable and reproducible assessment of volumetric and functional parameters of the left and right atrium. Eur Radiol 2021; 31:7219-7230. [PMID: 33779815 PMCID: PMC8452582 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-021-07830-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2020] [Revised: 01/26/2021] [Accepted: 02/24/2021] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
Objectives To compare volumetric and functional parameters of the atria derived from highly accelerated compressed sensing (CS)–based cine sequences in comparison to conventional (Conv) cine imaging. Methods CS and Conv cine sequences were acquired in 101 subjects (82 healthy volunteers (HV) and 19 patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF)) using a 3T MR scanner in this single-center study. Time-volume analysis of the left (LA) and right atria (RA) were performed in both sequences to evaluate atrial volumes and function (total, passive, and active emptying fraction). Inter-sequence and inter- and intra-reader agreement were analyzed using correlation, intraclass correlation (ICC), and Bland-Altman analysis. Results CS-based cine imaging led to a 69% reduction of acquisition time. There was significant difference in atrial parameters between CS and Conv cine, e.g., LA minimal volume (LAVmin) (Conv 24.0 ml (16.7–32.7), CS 25.7 ml (19.2–35.2), p < 0.0001) or passive emptying fraction (PEF) (Conv 53.9% (46.7–58.4), CS 49.0% (42.0–54.1), p < 0.0001). However, there was high correlation between the techniques, yielding good to excellent ICC (0.76–0.99) and small mean of differences in Bland-Altman analysis (e.g. LAVmin − 2.0 ml, PEF 3.3%). Measurements showed high inter- (ICC > 0.958) and intra-rater (ICC > 0.934) agreement for both techniques. CS-based parameters (PEF AUC = 0.965, LAVmin AUC = 0.864) showed equivalent diagnostic ability compared to Conv cine imaging (PEF AUC = 0.989, LAVmin AUC = 0.859) to differentiate between HV and HFrEF. Conclusion Atrial volumetric and functional evaluation using CS cine imaging is feasible with relevant reduction of acquisition time, therefore strengthening the role of CS in clinical CMR for atrial imaging. Key Points • Reliable assessment of atrial volumes and function based on compressed sensing cine imaging is feasible. • Compressed sensing reduces scan time and has the potential to overcome obstacles of conventional cine imaging. • No significant differences for subjective image quality, inter- and intra-rater agreement, and ability to differentiate healthy volunteers and heart failure patients were detected between conventional and compressed sensing cine imaging.

Comparison between conventional and compressed sensing cine cardiovascular magnetic resonance for feature tracking global circumferential strain assessment. J Cardiovasc Magn Reson 2021; 23:10. [PMID: 33618722 PMCID: PMC7898736 DOI: 10.1186/s12968-021-00708-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2020] [Accepted: 01/06/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Feature tracking (FT) has become an established tool for cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR)-based strain analysis. Recently, the compressed sensing (CS) technique has been applied to cine CMR, which has drastically reduced its acquisition time. However, the effects of CS imaging on FT strain analysis need to be carefully studied. This study aimed to investigate the use of CS cine CMR for FT strain analysis compared to conventional cine CMR. METHODS Sixty-five patients with different left ventricular (LV) pathologies underwent both retrospective conventional cine CMR and prospective CS cine CMR using a prototype sequence with the comparable temporal and spatial resolution at 3 T. Eight short-axis cine images covering the entire LV were obtained and used for LV volume assessment and FT strain analysis. Prospective CS cine CMR data over 1.5 heartbeats were acquired to capture the complete end-diastolic data between the first and second heartbeats. LV volume assessment and FT strain analysis were performed using a dedicated software (ci42; Circle Cardiovasacular Imaging, Calgary, Canada), and the global circumferential strain (GCS) and GCS rate were calculated from both cine CMR sequences. RESULTS There were no significant differences in the GCS (- 17.1% [- 11.7, - 19.5] vs. - 16.1% [- 11.9, - 19.3; p = 0.508) and GCS rate (- 0.8 [- 0.6, - 1.0] vs. - 0.8 [- 0.7, - 1.0]; p = 0.587) obtained using conventional and CS cine CMR. The GCS obtained using both methods showed excellent agreement (y = 0.99x - 0.24; r = 0.95; p < 0.001). The Bland-Altman analysis revealed that the mean difference in the GCS between the conventional and CS cine CMR was 0.1% with limits of agreement between -2.8% and 3.0%. No significant differences were found in all LV volume assessment between both types of cine CMR. CONCLUSION CS cine CMR could be used for GCS assessment by CMR-FT as well as conventional cine CMR. This finding further enhances the clinical utility of high-speed CS cine CMR imaging.
