Abstract:
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES:To compare electron beam tomography (EBT) with MR imaging (MRI) for detection of restenosis after coronary angioplasty (PTCA). METHODS:One hundred eighteen patients after PTCA were investigated. By EBT, 50 axial images were acquired (3-mm slice thickness, 120-160 mL radiographic contrast agent). MRI was performed using respiratory-gated sequences (24-48 cross-sections, 2-mm slice thickness, 20 mL Gd-DTPA). EBT and MRI images were evaluated concerning high-grade post-PTCA restenosis (> or = 70%) and validated against coronary angiography. RESULTS:In EBT, 28 patients and in MRI, 31 patients were not evaluable. In the remaining patients, sensitivity for restenosis detection was 90% in EBT (17/19) and 73% in MRI (11/15; P = 0.370). In EBT, specificity was significantly higher (66% vs. 49%, P = 0.043). Overall accuracy was 71% for EBT and 53% for MRI (P = 0.014). CONCLUSIONS:For the detection of high-grade restenosis after PTCA, EBT demonstrated significantly higher accuracy than MRI.
