SCMR expert consensus statement for cardiovascular magnetic resonance of acquired and non-structural pediatric heart disease. J Cardiovasc Magn Reson 2022; 24:44. [PMID: 35864534 PMCID: PMC9302232 DOI: 10.1186/s12968-022-00873-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is widely used for diagnostic imaging in the pediatric population. In addition to structural congenital heart disease (CHD), for which published guidelines are available, CMR is also performed for non-structural pediatric heart disease, for which guidelines are not available. This article provides guidelines for the performance and reporting of CMR in the pediatric population for non-structural ("non-congenital") heart disease, including cardiomyopathies, myocarditis, Kawasaki disease and systemic vasculitides, cardiac tumors, pericardial disease, pulmonary hypertension, heart transplant, and aortopathies. Given important differences in disease pathophysiology and clinical manifestations as well as unique technical challenges related to body size, heart rate, and sedation needs, these guidelines focus on optimization of the CMR examination in infants and children compared to adults. Disease states are discussed, including the goals of CMR examination, disease-specific protocols, and limitations and pitfalls, as well as newer techniques that remain under development.

Abstract
Myocarditis comprises many clinical presentations ranging from asymptomatic to sudden cardiac death. The history, physical examination, cardiac biomarkers, inflammatory markers, and electrocardiogram are usually helpful in the initial assessment of suspected acute myocarditis. Echocardiography is the primary tool to detect ventricular wall motion abnormalities, pericardial effusion, valvular regurgitation, and impaired function. The advancement of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging has been helpful in clinical practice for diagnosing myocarditis. A recent Scientific Statement by the American Heart Association suggested CMR as a confirmatory test to diagnose acute myocarditis in children. However, standard CMR parametric mapping parameters for diagnosing myocarditis are unavailable in pediatric patients for consistency and reliability in the interpretation. The present review highlights the unmet clinical needs for standard CMR parametric criteria for diagnosing acute and chronic myocarditis in children and differentiating dilated chronic myocarditis phenotype from idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. Of particular relevance to today’s practice, we also assess the potential and limitations of CMR to diagnose acute myocarditis in children exposed to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 infections. The latter section will discuss the multi-inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) and mRNA coronavirus disease 19 vaccine-associated myocarditis.

Abstract
Cardiac MRI has become a widely accepted standard for anatomic and functional assessment of complex Fontan physiology, because it is noninvasive and suitable for comprehensive follow-up evaluation after Fontan completion. The use of cardiac MRI in pediatric and adult patients after completion of the Fontan procedure are described, and a practical and experience-based cardiac MRI protocol for evaluating these patients is provided. The current approach and study protocol in use at the authors' institution are presented, which address technical considerations concerning sequences, planning, and optimal image acquisition in patients with Fontan circulation. Additionally, for each sequence, the information that can be obtained and guidance on how to integrate it into clinical decision-making is discussed.

Recommendations for cardiovascular magnetic resonance and computed tomography in congenital heart disease: a consensus paper from the CMR/CCT working group of the Italian Society of Pediatric Cardiology (SICP) and the Italian College of Cardiac Radiology endorsed by the Italian Society of Medical and Interventional Radiology (SIRM) Part I. Radiol Med 2022; 127:788-802. [PMID: 35608758 PMCID: PMC9308607 DOI: 10.1007/s11547-022-01490-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2021] [Accepted: 03/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) and computed tomography (CCT) are advanced imaging modalities that recently revolutionized the conventional diagnostic approach to congenital heart diseases (CHD), supporting echocardiography and often replacing cardiac catheterization. Nevertheless, correct execution and interpretation require in-depth knowledge of all technical and clinical aspects of CHD, a careful assessment of risks and benefits before each exam, proper imaging protocols to maximize diagnostic information, minimizing harm. This position paper, written by experts from the Working Group of the Italian Society of Pediatric Cardiology and from the Italian College of Cardiac Radiology of the Italian Society of Medical and Interventional Radiology, is intended as a practical guide for applying CCT and CMR in children and adults with CHD, wishing to support Radiologists, Pediatricians, Cardiologists and Cardiac Surgeons in the multimodality diagnostic approach to these patients. The first part provides a review of the most relevant literature in the field, describes each modality's advantage and drawback, making considerations on the main applications, image quality, and safety issues. The second part focuses on clinical indications and appropriateness criteria for CMR and CCT, considering the level of CHD complexity, the clinical and logistic setting and the operator expertise.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Early Fontan failure is a serious complication after total cavopulmonary connection, characterized by high central venous pressure, low cardiac output, and resistance to medical therapy. This study aimed to estimate postoperative central venous pressure in patients with total cavopulmonary connection using data routinely collected during preoperative assessment. We sought to determine if this metric correlated with measured postoperative central venous pressure and if it was associated with early Fontan failure. METHODS In this retrospective study, central venous pressure in total cavopulmonary connection was estimated in 131 patients undergoing pre-total cavopulmonary connection assessment by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and central venous pressure measurement under general anesthesia. Postoperative central venous pressure during the first 24 hours in the intensive care unit was collected from electronic patient records in a subset of patients. Early Fontan failure was defined as death, transplantation, total cavopulmonary connection takedown, or emergency fenestration within the first 30 days. RESULTS Estimated central venous pressure in total cavopulmonary connection correlated significantly with central venous pressure during the first 24 hours in the intensive care unit (r = 0.26, P = .03), particularly in patients without a fenestration (r = 0.45, P = .01). Central venous pressure in total cavopulmonary connection was significantly associated with early Fontan failure (odds ratio, 1.1; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-1.21; P = .03). A threshold of central venous pressure in total cavopulmonary connection 33 mm Hg or greater was found to have the highest specificity (90%) and sensitivity (58%) for identifying early Fontan failure (area under receiver operating curve = 0.73; odds ratio, 12.4; 95% confidence interval, 2.5-62.3; P = .002). This association was stronger in patients with single superior vena cava. CONCLUSIONS Estimated central venous pressure in total cavopulmonary connection is an easily calculated metric combining preoperative pressure and flow data. Higher central venous pressure in total cavopulmonary connection is associated with an increased risk of early Fontan failure and is correlated with directly measured post-total cavopulmonary connection pressure. Identification of patients at risk of early Fontan failure has the potential to guide risk-mitigation strategies.

Abstract
Advances in the treatment have drastically increased the survival rate of congenital heart disease (CHD) patients. Therefore, the prevalence of these patients is growing. Imaging plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and management of this population as a key component of patient care at all stages, especially in those patients who survived into adulthood. Over the last decades, noninvasive imaging techniques, such as cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) and cardiac computed tomography (CCT), progressively increased their clinical relevance, reaching stronger levels of accuracy and indications in the clinical surveillance of CHD. The current review highlights the main technical aspects and clinical applications of CMR and CCT in the setting of congenital cardiovascular abnormalities, aiming to address a state-of-the-art guidance to every physician and cardiac imager not routinely involved in the field.

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
Williams syndrome is a well-recognised congenital disorder characterised by cardiovascular, connective tissue, and central nervous system abnormalities. Coronary artery abnormalities are seen in patients with supravalvar aortic stenosis, but end-stage ischaemic heart disease is rare. We report a case of end-stage ischaemic heart disease due to severe coronary arterial stenosis, highlighting how cardiovascular MRI contributed to the management.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Spurred by numerous recent technological advances, cardiac MRI (CMR) is now the gold standard for anatomic evaluation, quantitative assessment of chamber size and function, flow quantification, and tissue characterization. This review focuses on recent advances in pediatric and congenital CMR, highlighting recent safety data, and discussing future directions. RECENT FINDINGS CMR has become an important component of risk stratification and procedural planning in numerous congenital and pediatric heart diseases. Innovative approaches to image acquisition and reconstruction are leading the way toward fast, high-resolution, three- and four-dimensional datasets for delineation of cardiac anatomy, function, and flow. In addition, techniques for assessing the composition of the myocardium may help elucidate the pathophysiology of late complications, identify patients at risk for heart failure, and assist in the evaluation of therapeutic strategies. SUMMARY CMR provides invaluable morphologic, hemodynamic, and functional data that help guide diagnosis, assessment, and management of pediatric and adult congenital heart disease. As imaging techniques advance and data accumulate on the relative and additive value of CMR in patient care, its role in a multimodality approach to the care of this population of patients is becoming clear and is likely to continue to evolve.

BACKGROUND In the era of multi-modality imaging, this study compared contemporary, pre-operative echocardiography and cardiac MRI in predicting the need for intervention on additional lesions before surgical bidirectional cavopulmonary connection. METHODS A total of 72 patients undergoing bidirectional cavopulmonary connection for single-ventricle palliation between 2007 and 2012, who underwent pre-operative assessment using both echocardiography and MRI, were included. The pre-determined outcome measure was any additional surgical or catheter-based intervention within 6 months of bidirectional cavopulmonary connection. Indices assessed were as follows: indexed dimensions of right and left pulmonary arteries, coarctation of the aorta, adequacy of interatrial communication, and degree of atrioventricular valve regurgitation. RESULTS Median age at bidirectional cavopulmonary connection was 160 days (interquartile range 121-284). The following MRI parameters predicted intervention: Z score for right pulmonary artery (odds ratio 1.77 (95% confidence interval 1.12-2.79, p=0.014)) and left pulmonary artery dimensions (odds ratio 1.45 (1.04-2.00, p=0.027)) and left pulmonary artery report conclusion (odds ratio 1.57 (1.06-2.33)). The magnetic resonance report predicted aortic arch intervention (odds ratio 11.5 (3.5-37.7, p=0.00006)). The need for atrioventricular valve repair was associated only with magnetic resonance regurgitation fraction score (odds ratio 22.4 (1.7-295.1, p=0.018)). Echocardiography assessment was superior to MRI for predicting intervention on interatrial septum (odds ratio 27.7 (6.3-121.6, p=0.00001)). CONCLUSION For branch pulmonary arteries, aortic arch, and atrioventricular valve regurgitation, MRI parameters more reliably predict the need for intervention; however, echocardiography more accurately identified the adequacy of interatrial communication. Approaching bidirectional cavopulmonary connection, the diagnostic strengths of MRI and echocardiography should be acknowledged when considering intervention.

Abstract
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance is a non-invasive imaging modality which is emerging as important tool for the investigation and management of pediatric cardiovascular disease. In this review we describe the key technical and practical differences between scanning children and adults, and highlight some important considerations that must be taken into account for this patient population. Using case examples commonly seen in clinical practice, we discuss the important clinical applications of cardiovascular magnetic resonance, and briefly highlight key future developments in this field.

Abstract
Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging has significantly evolved over the last decade, becoming an integral part of the contemporary assessment of both congenital and acquired pediatric heart disease. Recent trends show that there is a growing interest in clinical applications and research in this field. An attempt to discuss the evolving technologies, techniques, and applications of CMR in pediatrics is not complete without understanding the current strengths of the modality. CMR complements readily available echocardiography, in many cases information from CMR can remove the need for invasive angiographic catheterization, and in other cases can be used to augment cardiac catheterisation.

Abstract
Hypoplasia of the left ventricle is a congenital cardiac lesion that is almost universally fatal if left untreated. Six decades of improved diagnostic modalities, greater understanding of single ventricle physiology, and earlier surgical and palliative options have given many of these patients an opportunity of surviving well into adulthood. This review will summarize these advances and focus on the anesthetic implications of this challenging disease from diagnosis to beyond the first palliative surgery.
