Whole-heart steady-state free precession coronary artery magnetic resonance angiography.

Abstract:

:Current implementations of coronary artery magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) suffer from limited coverage of the coronary arterial system. Whole-heart coronary MRA was implemented based on a free-breathing steady-state free-precession (SSFP) technique with magnetization preparation. The technique was compared to a similar implementation of conventional, thin-slab coronary MRA in 12 normal volunteers. Three thin-slab volumes were prescribed: 1) a transverse slab, covering the left main (LM) artery and proximal segments of the left anterior ascending (LAD) and left circumflex (LCX) coronary arteries; 2) a double-oblique slab covering the right coronary artery (RCA); and 3) a double-oblique slab covering the proximal and distal segments of the LCX. The whole-heart data set was reformatted in identical orientations. Visible vessel length, vessel sharpness, and vessel diameter were determined and compared separately for each vessel. Whole-heart coronary MRA visualized LM/LAD (11.7 +/- 3.4 cm) and LCX (6.9 +/- 3.6 cm) over a significantly longer distance than the transverse volume (LM/LAD, 6.1 +/- 1.1 cm, P < 0.001; LCX, 4.2 +/- 1.2 cm, P < 0.05). Improvements in visible vessel length for RCA and LCX in the whole-heart approach vs. their respective targeted volumes were not significant. It is concluded that the whole-heart coronary MRA technique improves visible vessel length and facilitates high-quality coronary MRA of the complete coronary artery tree in a single measurement.
