Abstract
BACKGROUND
Hyperpolarized [1-13C]pyruvate magnetic resonance imaging (HP MRI) visualizes key steps in myocardial metabolism. The present study aimed to examine patients with heart (HF) using HP MRI.
METHODS
A cross-sectional study of patients with HF and healthy controls using HP MRI. Metabolic imaging was obtained using a cardiac-gated spectral-spatial excitation with spiral read-out acquisition. The metabolite signal was analyzed for lactate, bicarbonate, and the alanine signal. Metabolite signal was normalized to the total carbon signal (TC). At the one-year follow-up, echocardiography was performed in all patients and HP MRI in two patients.
RESULTS
We included six patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD), six with dilated cardiomyopathy and six healthy controls. In patients, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) correlated with lactate/bicarbonate (r = -0.6, p = 0.03) and lactate/TC (r = -0.7, p = 0.01). In patients with LVEF < 30%, lactate/TC was increased (p = 0.01) and bicarbonate/TC reduced (p = 0.03). Circumferential strain correlated with metabolite ratios: lactate/bicarbonate, r = 0.87 (p = 0.0002); lactate/TC, r = 0.85 (p = 0.0005); bicarbonate/TC, r = -0.82 (p = 0.001). In patients with IHD, a strong correlation was found between baseline metabolite ratios and the change in LVEF at follow-up: lactate/bicarbonate (p = 0.001); lactate/TC (p = 0.011); and bicarbonate/TC (p = 0.012).
CONCLUSIONS
This study highlighted the ability of HP MRI to detect changes in metabolism in HF. HP MRI has potential for metabolic phenotyping of patients with HF and for predicting treatment response.
