摘要:

目的:评价磁共振成像(magnetic resonance imaging, MRI)三维平衡稳态自由进动(three-dimensional ba-lanced steady state free precession,3D b-SSFP)序列诊断儿童冠状动脉异常起源于肺动脉(anomalous origin of the coronary artery from the pulmonary artery, ACAPA)的应用价值。方法:回顾分析21例ACAPA患儿[平均年龄为(33.67±43.32)个月]的MRI 3D b-SSFP全心成像图像,评估其成像质量。观察者间的图像质量评估通过Kappa系数进行检测,对心率与图像质量之间的关系进行回归分析,同时以手术或数字减影血管造影(digital subtraction angiography,DSA)结果为金标准,评估3D b-SSFP诊断冠状动脉异常起源的准确性。结果:21例患儿的平均心率为(105.85±18.20)次/分;左心室平均舒张末期容积为(79.63±37.46)mL/m2,平均射血分数为(34.28±21.39)%。19例患儿ACAPA为孤立性异常,不伴其他心脏畸形。对比手术及DSA检查结果,21例患儿中有18例3D b-SSFP诊断正确,准确率达85.71%;3例被误诊,其中2例图像边缘模糊无法诊断,1例被误诊为冠状动脉正常起源。10例患者行对比剂延迟增强磁共振成像(late gadolinium-enhanced MRI,LGE-MRI),8例显示左心室心肌延迟增强异常强化。2名观察者对3D b-SSFP图像质量评分的平均值分别为(2.84±0.82)分和(2.83±0.83)分,观察者间的一致率为81.8%(95%CI为57.0%%~86.6%)。线性回归分析结果显示,2名观察者对血管清晰度的评分与患儿心率间均无相关性,相关系数分别为-0.277和-0.263。结论:3D b-SSFP检查可以准确诊断ACAPA。心脏MRI一站式检查不仅可以显示心脏解剖结构(包括冠状动脉),同时可以评价心脏功能和心肌组织学特征。

Abstract:

Objective: To evaluate the value of three-dimensional balanced steady state free precession sequence (3D b-SSFP) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequence in diagnosis of anomalous origin of the coronary artery from the pulmonary artery(ACAPA). Methods: The whole heart MRI3D b-SSFP performed on 21 children with an age of (33.67±43.32) months was retrospectively analyzed. All the subjects had DSA or surgical operation confirmed ACAPA, and 19 cases were isolated heart abnormality. The imaging quality of 3D b-SSFP was evaluated and inter-observer agreement was validated by the Kappa coefficient. Relationship between heart rate and imaging quality was assessed by regression analysis. The diagnostic accuracy of 3D b-SSFP for ACAPA was assessed by comparison with findings from DSA or surgical operation. Results: The subjective scores on the image quality from two observers were 2.84±0.82 and 2.83±0.83, and inter-observer agreement was 81.8% (95% CI 57.0%-86.6%). The heart rate (HR) of investigated subjects was(105.85±18.20) beat/min, and the left ventricular end diastolic volume and ejection fraction were (79.63±37.46) mL/m2 and (34.28±21.39)% respectively. Left ventricular late gadolinium enhancement(LGE) was positive in 8 of 10. Regression analysis showed negative correlations between vessel sharpness and HR in both 2 observers, and correlation coefficients were -0.277 and -0.263, respectively. MRI3D b-SSFP identified ACAPA in 18 out of the 21 cases investigated, yielding a diagnostic accuracy of 85.71%. The MRI imaging of 2 cases was beyond recognition due to blurred edge and 1 case was misdiagnosed as normal. Conclusion: Cardiac MRI displays cardiac anatomy and coronary artery and facilitates evaluation of cardiac function. The 3D b-SSFP is a valuable MRI sequence for diagnosing ACAPA.
