Abstract

This study aimed to clarify the effects of different types of gadolinium (Gd)-based contrast agents (GBCAs) and different T1 values of Gd-containing materials on the R1 value and magnetic susceptibility of quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM). GBCA dilution phantoms were prepared using five types to of GBCA evaluate their effects. The effect of different T1 values of substances with Gd was assessed. A 3.0 T-MR scanner with a 20-channel head/neck coil was used to acquire the R1 map and QSM for the phantom. Linear regression analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between Gd concentration and R1 or magnetic susceptibility for each phantom. An analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was employed to assess the consistency of the slopes. Linear regression analysis showed that Gd concentration had a high coefficient of determination for R1 values and magnetic susceptibility (R2, 0.696–0.999; p < 0.001). ANCOVA showed significant differences in the slopes of R1 values when different GBCA types were used (p < 0.001), but no significant differences in the slopes for magnetic susceptibility (p = 0.719). Differences in surrounding T1 values significantly altered the intercepts and slopes of the measurements of R1 values and magnetic susceptibility (p < 0.001). The change in slope was smaller for magnetic susceptibility than for R1 values. Thus, while R1 was minimally affected by the GBCA type, it varied with surrounding tissue T1 values. QSM, however, was unaffected by the GBCA type and less influenced by T1 values, suggesting QSM may offer more quantitative measurements of Gd compared to R1 maps.

用于估算脑内钆沉积量的定量易感性绘图的量化验证:初步模型研究
本研究旨在阐明不同类型的钆(Gd)基造影剂(GBCA)和不同 T1 值的含钆材料对定量电感图(QSM)的 R1 值和磁感应强度的影响。我们使用五种 GBCA 制备了 GBCA 稀释模型,以评估它们的影响。评估了含钆物质的不同 T1 值的影响。使用带有 20 通道头颈线圈的 3.0 T-MR 扫描仪获取 R1 图和模型的 QSM。对每个模型进行了线性回归分析,以评估 Gd 浓度与 R1 或磁感应强度之间的关系。采用协方差分析 (ANCOVA) 评估斜率的一致性。线性回归分析表明,钆浓度对 R1 值和磁感应强度具有较高的决定系数(R2,0.696-0.999;p <;0.001)。方差分析显示,使用不同类型的 GBCA 时,R1 值的斜率有显著差异(p < 0.001),但磁感应强度的斜率无显著差异(p = 0.719)。周围 T1 值的不同会显著改变 R1 值和磁感应强度测量的截距和斜率(p < 0.001)。与 R1 值相比,磁感应强度的斜率变化较小。因此,虽然 R1 受 GBCA 类型的影响很小,但它随周围组织 T1 值的变化而变化。然而,QSM 不受 GBCA 类型的影响,受 T1 值的影响也较小,这表明与 R1 地图相比,QSM 可提供更多的 Gd 定量测量。
