MR-IMPACT II It is the largest multicenter MR/SPECT trial performed so far using 99mTc-tracers and ECG-gating (33 centers, 465 patients) It shows:

§  Perfusion-CMR (at 0.075 mmol/kg Gd-DTPA- BMA) is superior to SPECT for the detection of coronary artery disease

§  Perfusion-CMR is a short and safe test, is sensitive and specific, and can be recommended as an alternative for SPECT imaging in experienced centers

CMR research in patients undergoing PCI

●  CMR: New level of understanding of the

interrelations amongst coronary stenosis, myocardial blood flow, function and irreversible injury

1. Use of CMR in monitoring injury from revascularisation procedures

2. Blood flow in hibernating myocardium

With A. Banning, K. Channon, J. Selvanayagam

Use of CMR in monitoring injury from revascularisation procedures

Questions

●  Occurrence and location of peri-procedural myocardial necrosis

in complex PCI?

●  Relationship between magnitude of troponin rise to the volume

of myocardial tissue loss?

●  Mechanisms of irreversible myocardial tissue injury?

Blood flow in hibernating myocardium

●  Impairment in perfusion reserve is well recognized in myocardium supplied by significantly diseased coronary arteries (CAD)

●  However, it is unknown whether resting blood flow is abnormal in such myocardium

●  Studies to date mainly using PET have produced conflicting results

Background

Methods 27 patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) ●  one/ two vessel CAD (>85% stenosis by QCA) ●  at least one dysfunctional segment

Relationship between transmural scar and baseline/post- PCI blood flow

•  Troponin elevation 24 hr post PCI represents new

myocardial injury •  Both impairment of side branches and distal embolisation of

plaque material contribute to myocardial necrosis during PCI

•  Resting myocardial blood flow is reduced in hibernating myocardium

Methods ●  The diagnostic coronary angiogram was used to define affected

myocardial segments

●  Wall motion was assessed visually:

normal 1; hypokinetic 2; akinetic 3; dyskinetic 4.

●  In each slice, MBF was determined for 8 myocardial sectors in ml/min/g by deconvolution of signal intensity curves with an arterial input function measured in the LV blood pool

Jerosch-Herold, M. et. al JMRI 2004

Results Coronary lesion severity was 80-95% stenosis by quantitative coronary angiography

Mean MBF normalized by rate pressure product (‘corrected MBF’) was 1.2+/-0.3 in segments without significant coronary stenosis and 0.7 +/-0.2 in segments with coronary stenosis pre PCI (z=23.9, p<0.001)

Early post procedure, the MBF was 1.2+/-0.2 in revascularised segments, and 1.3+/-0.2 in non-diseased segments
