摘要
目的下肢动脉疾病(LEAD)是外周动脉疾病(PAD)的主要表现之一,血管钙化对其预后有显著影响。本研究评估三维多回波T2*加权图像(T2*WI) ct样成像评估铅患者血管钙化及血管壁面积的可行性。材料与方法对20例铅铅患者(中位年龄75.0岁)采用s3.0 T MRI系统获取ct样图像。我们对10例之前接受过非对比CT的患者进行血管钙化评估,同时对另外10例使用三维(3D)脂肪抑制t1加权涡轮自旋回波(FS-T1 TSE)评估血管壁面积。结果CT样成像与非对比CT对血管钙化的视觉评价有中等程度的一致性(κ = 0.75),与钙化的定量评价有较强的相关性(r = 0.91-0.96)。Bland-Altman分析显示,ct样成像与FS-T1 TSE在血管壁面积测量上的偏差极小。结论ct样成像是评估铅患者血管钙化及血管壁面积的一种可行技术。无辐射暴露使其成为一种有希望替代CT进行血管评估的方法。
Evaluation of vascular calcification and Vessel Wall in patients with lower extremity artery disease using CT-like imaging
Purpose
Lower extremity artery disease (LEAD), a major manifestation of peripheral arterial disease (PAD), is significantly influenced by vascular calcification, which impacts treatment outcomes. This study evaluates the feasibility of CT-like imaging using 3D multi-echo T2*-weighted image (T2*WI) for assessing vascular calcifications and vessel wall area in patients with LEAD.
Materials and methods
A 3.0 T MRI system was used to acquire CT-like images from 20 patients with LEAD (median age: 75.0 years). Vascular calcifications were assessed in 10 patients who had previously undergone non-contrast CT, while vessel wall area was evaluated in another 10 patients using three-dimensional (3D) fat-suppressed T1-weighted turbo spin-echo (FS-T1 TSE).
Results
CT-like imaging demonstrated moderate agreement with non-contrast CT for the visual assessment of vascular calcifications (κ = 0.75) and a strong correlation for the quantitative evaluation of calcification (r = 0.91–0.96). Bland–Altman analysis showed minimal bias in vessel wall area measurements between CT-like imaging and FS-T1 TSE.
Conclusion
CT-like imaging is a feasible technique for assessing vascular calcifications and vessel wall area in patients with LEAD. The absence of radiation exposure makes it a promising alternative to CT for vascular evaluation.
