8 QCA

9

10 Limits of visual estimation Subjective interpretation of what the stenosis should be: Before PTCA, stenosis are found more severe After PTCA, stenosis are found less severe Dichotomous analysis High inter-observer variability Can be trained/perform QCA Not suitable for multicentric trials/+++

11 Caliper Methods Calibration: Guiding catheter Use magnified images High interobserver variability (r=0.6 to 0.7) Used in the BARI trial

12 Quantitative angiographic methods Calibration: Guiding catheter Use magnified images Orthogonal views or worst view Automated edge detection algorithms Process : film digitization, image calibration, arterial contour detection Interobserver variability 3.1% for diameter stenosis 0.1 to 0.18 mm for MLD

13 QCA techniques

14 QCA techniques

15 QCA techniques

16 QCA techniques

17 Quantitative angiographic systems ARTREK Quinton imaging, Ann Arbor, MI Edges = 75% weighted thresh. between 1st and 2nd derivative User defined Average reference diameter Interobserver variability: MLD : 0.2 mm, Percent stenosis : 8% CAAS : Cardiovascular Angiography Analysis System Pie Data Medical, Maastricht, The Netherlands Edges = 50% weighted threshold Interpolated reference diameter CMS : Cardiovascular Measurement System MEDIS, The Netherlands Edges = 50% weighted threshold Interpolated reference diameter Interobserver variability: MLD : 0.15 mm, Percent stenosis : 4%

18 Correctable sources of imaging error during acquisition Biologic variation in lumen diameter Cardiac cycle : end-diastolic diastolic frames Vasomotor tone : nitroglycerin : 0.2 mg Image acquisition : single study Respiration : Breath holding Vessel foreshortening : Multiple angiographic projections Insufficient contrast injection : use 6-French catheters Branch vessel overlap : Multiple angiographic projections Pincushion distortion : Image objects in center of image Image acquisition : Sequential studies X-ray generator, X-ray X tube, Image intensif. : use same Cath Lab Differences in angle and gantry height = Record gantry height/angle/skew on worksheet Image calibration : use the same catheter diameter

19 QCA techniques

20 Correctable sources of errors during image analysis Electronic noise Recurzing digitization and frame averaging Quantum noise Spatial filtering of digital image data Automated edge detection Selection of reference positions Identification of lesion length : use of side branches, oth. landmarks Frame selection : End-diastolic diastolic frame Use of worst view (or orthognal views)

21 On-line QCA Several systems are available: Automated coronary analysis (ACA) :Philips CMS CAAS-II Infrequently used: Quality of data recording Analysis performed by a technician Limited ability to check for the quality of the analysis Use of QCA: Allow to train for qualitative assessment of vessel diameter and % stenosis

22 Methodologic limitations of QCA Limited ability to detect the presence and the severity of coronary atherosclerosis and its evolution overtime : Progression/regression studies Definition of Vessel reference diameter when using stents Use of radiopaque stents decrease reliability of QCA : Accuracy of MLD falling from 0.07 mm to 0.12 mm Accuracy of RVD not affected Modified algorithms have been designed (e.g. CMS- GFT)

28 Analyse angiographique L angiographie coronaire reste l outil l d évaluation de routine de l arbre l coronaire Il est important d en d connaître les limites (techniques, analyse qualitative) pour l utiliser à bon escient L analyse quantitative n est n pas indispensable en routine (intérêt dans la formation des médecins, m dans la réalisation des études multicentrique)

41 Decision making based on FFR 0.75 FFR < 0.75 ischaemia inducible: revascularization is justified. FFR > 0.75 ischaemia highly unlikely:? is it justified to DEFER revascularization, even when the lesion is angiographically serious?

63 Guide wire straight or J tip pressure sensor - 3 cm proximal to the end of the wire

64 Pressure sensor Tip

65 blood pressure distal to the lesion being assessed - Pressure distal (Pd) conventional pressure transducer - measures arterial/aortic pressure - Pressure arterial (Pa)

66 Pa Pd

67 mean pressures of Pd and Pa are used assuming there is no lesion present = no difference in pressure The difference between these two pressures taken at rest determines if there is a resting gradient across a lesion Gradient calculation = Pd/Pa.

68 no lesion, the pressures will be the same and therefore the gradient value will be 1 E.g. Pa = 150 mmhg Pd = 150mmHg Then Pd/Pa = 1

69 Fractional Flow Reserve The Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) is a ratio which is measured in a state of Hyperemia

70 Hyperemia Hyperemia state of myocardial vasculature dilatation Myocardial bed - pharmacologically dilated with an agent Adenosine occurs naturally in the body in small quantities and is produced during exercise to assist in the dilatation of the myocardial bed.

71 Dilation of micro-vasculature increases oxygen demand a flow limiting lesion will cause the blood pressure distal to the lesion to fall FFR will fall The extent of this reduction gives an indication as to the degree of flow limitation and hence degree of severity of stenosis

72 Adenosine Pa Decreased Pd Decrease FFR
