5 Cine Imaging Let s make a movie! Image Acquisition Single shot Segmented Gated segmented Imaging Image 1 Image 2 Image 3 A portion of several images is acquired every heartbeat Each image has a different cardiac phase Requires no motion between heartbeats (good breath holding!) 5
6 LGE + LV function: Chronic Cardiomyopathy Protocol Ischemic vs non ischemic vs infiltrative cardiomyopathies LGE: Myocardial Fibrosis Contrast agent (Gd) reduces T 1 values Contrast cannot enter intact cells Greater accumulation of contrast in scarred tissue Weinsaft JW et al.

18 T2/STIR Cine SUMMARY LGE Tagging T1 Map T2* Black blood Flow Perfusion MRA Summary Many different MRI sequences Ways to generate image contrast permit tissue characterization ** a unique feature of MRI! Tailor the protocol to answer the clinical question. Each sequence takes time patients can only tolerate so long in the scanner Important to use an MRI scanner to capacity. Having a preset group of protocols may benefit workflow New sequences and means to generate image contrast are still being discovered!

22 Cardiac MRI Sequences: 3D Balanced steady state free precession (3D b ssfe) ECG triggered, navigator gated free breathing For assessment of morphology 3D volumetric acquisition allows multiplanar postprocessing Cardiac MRI Sequences: Phase Contrast Allows measurement of intracardiac shunts Pulmonary : Systemic blood flow ratios (Qp:Qs) Quantification of reguritant fractions Quantify pressure gradients at areas of stenosis (modified Bernoulli Equation) MRI Contrast Agents Paramagnetic materials have unpaired electrons that catalyze proton interactions Result in shorter T 1 and T 2 times Gadolinium (Gd) has 7 unpaired electrons! Contrast agents are chelated Gd so that they can be biologically safe 22
23 Myocardial Perfusion Heart requires constant blood flow to function Bolus IV contrast flows along with the blood Contrast causes increase in brightness Repeated imaging can image contrast dynamics Kellman P et al. J Magn Reson Imag 2012;36: Quantitative T 2 Imaging Used to assess severity of edema Can detect global edema Standard imaging for all studies Long axis planes HLA, VLA, LVOT, LVOT coronal, (RVOT +/ RV inflow if right sided lesions) Need two perpendicular views of the valve(s) in question LV & RV function 23
24 Don t forget the aorta in your valve assessment! Aortic disease Residual root dissection in a patient with a previous type A dissection repair (interpositional graft) Mitral regurgitation Standard methods of quantification are indirect: 1) Regurgitant flow = LVSV - Ao systolic flow (independent of other valve lesions) 2) Regurgitant flow = LVSV - RVSV Mitral stenosis Can assess mitral valve area by direct planimetry Important to ensure correct slice positioning at MV tips (as for echo) Diastolic flow (volume and velocity) is feasible though temporal resolution is lower than echo 24
25 Mitral stenosis (2) Planimetry of the MV tips: Pulmonary stenosis Horizontal RVOT planned RVOT planned from transverse slices from previous RVOT Good visualisation of pulmonary valve motion Accurate velocity assessment RVOT sizing for potential surgery / balloon valvuloplasty / percutaneous valve replacement Pulmonary regurgitation Quantification of PR Size & shape of RVOT?percutaneous stentvalve replacement Size & function of RV Forward flow: 72mls Regurgitant flow: 27mls (38% regurgitant fraction) 25
26 Pulmonary valve disease (3) CMR is also important for: determining RV mass & volumes assessing RVOT morphology Dilated RV secondary to chronic PR Supravalvular Complex stenosis with pulmonary previous surgical disease widening Now recurrent supravalvular stenosis & valvular regurgitation Dilated post stenotic pulmonary artery Tricuspid disease Severe TR (note low velocity causes minimal turbulence from dephased spins). Also has pericardial effusion Regurgitation can be quantified similarly to mitral regurgitation (RVSV pulmonary flow) Stenosis can be assessed with direct planimetry of the tips RV volumes & function for all 26
27 Multiple valve disease Detailed assessment of severity of each lesion & LV function Mixed aortic and mixed mitral valve disease Proceed sequentially through assessment of each lesion, including LV/RV funciton assessment Global INV Slice INV IMG Double Inversion Recovery Double inversion has no effect on imaging slice Inverted blood flows into slice Imaging occurs when inverted blood has no signal (due to T 1 recovery) Aortic Valve 27
28 Aortic stenosis (1) SA pilot LVOT view Coronal LVOT view Plan initial LVOT view from short axis pilot scan, with the plane through the aortic root/valve The second LVOT (coronal) plane is planned through this, aligned with the stenotic jet. There is often a central core in the jet comprising laminar flow, with turbulent flow (black/low intensity on gradient echo) surrounding this Align planes with AS jet rather than Ao root Aortic stenosis (2) Choose the best LVOT view for in plane flow assessment (the one with the best view of the core jet) Aortic stenosis (3) Measure the peak velocity, either from the in plane flow itself, or using the in plane flow to identify the point of peak velocity and acquire a through plane flow sequence at this point: Position for through plane flow acquisition 28
29 Aortic stenosis (4) Measure the valve area by direct planimetry, by acquiring a thin (5 6mm) slice through the tips of the aortic valve in systole, piloted from the 2 LVOT views. It is important to ensure you are at the tips, as you may overestimate the valve area otherwise Need still image of valve in systole here, including planimetry Valve tips in systole area = 1.0cm 2 Aortic stenosis (5) Correct alignment with AS jet Accurate trans valvular velocity (in plane / through plane) avoids underestimation with angulated roots Valve orifice area (direct planimetry) LV mass & volumes to assess impact on LV Aortic regurgitation Through plane flow measurement Allows quantification of regurgitation 29
30 Saturation recovery imaging Short T 1 tissue recover magnetization faster and are therefore brighter Longer T 1 means slower recovery and are darker Image brightness can be used to calculate T 1 and also contrast concentration Quantitative T 1 Imaging T 1 imaging is used to assess fibrosis Extracellular volume can also be calculated 30
