Asymmetry analysis of nuclear Overhauser enhancement effect at -1.6 ppm in ischemic stroke
Background
The nuclear Overhauser enhancement (NOE)-mediated saturation transfer effect at -1.6 ppm, termed NOE(-1.6 ppm), has demonstrated potential for detecting ischemic stroke. However, the quantification of the NOE(-1.6 ppm) effect usually relies on a multiple-pool Lorentzian fit method, which necessitates a time-consuming acquisition of the entire chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) Z-spectrum with high-frequency resolution, thus hindering its clinical applications.
Purpose
This study aims to assess the feasibility of employing asymmetry analysis, a rapid CEST data acquisition and analysis method, for quantifying the NOE(-1.6 ppm) effect in an animal model of ischemic stroke.
Methods
We examined potential contaminations from guanidinium/amine CEST, NOE(-3.5 ppm), and asymmetric magnetization transfer (MT) effects, which could reduce the specificity of the asymmetry analysis of NOE(-1.6 ppm). First, a Lorentzian difference (LD) analysis was used to mitigate direct water saturation and MT effects, providing separate estimations of the contributions from the guanidinium/amine CEST and NOE effects. Then, the asymmetry analysis of the LD fitted spectrum was compared with the asymmetry analysis of the raw CEST Z-spectrum to evaluate the contribution of the asymmetric MT effect at -1.6 ppm.
Results
Results show that the variations of the LD quantified NOE(-1.6 ppm) in stroke lesions are much greater than that of the CEST signals at +1.6 ppm and NOE(-3.5 ppm), suggesting that NOE(-1.6 ppm) has a dominating contribution to the asymmetry analysis at -1.6 ppm compared with the guanidinium/amine CEST and NOE(-3.5 ppm) in ischemic stroke. The NOE(-1.6 ppm) variations in the asymmetry analysis of the raw CEST Z-spectrum are close to those in the asymmetry analysis of the LD fitted spectrum, revealing that the NOE(-1.6 ppm) dominates over the asymmetric MT effects.
Conclusion
Our study demonstrates that the asymmetry analysis can quantify the NOE(-1.6 ppm) contrast in ischemic stroke with high specificity, thus presenting a viable alternative for rapid mapping of ischemic stroke.
