英文摘要 | Background: One of the potentially important applications of three-dimensional (3D) intracranial vessel wall (IVW) cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is to monitor disease progression and regression via quantitative measurement of IVW morphology during medical management or drug development. However, a prerequisite for this application is to validate that IVW morphologic measurements based on the modality are reliable. In this study we performed comprehensive reliability analysis for the recently proposed whole-brain IVW CMR technique. Methods: Thirty-four healthy subjects and 10 patients with known intracranial atherosclerotic disease underwent repeat whole-brain IVW CMR scans. In 19 of the 34 subjects, two-dimensional (2D) turbo spin-echo (TSE) scan was performed to serve as a reference for the assessment of vessel dimensions. Lumen and wall volume, normalized wall index, mean and maximum wall thickness were measured in both 3D and 2D IVW CMR images. Scan-rescan, intra-observer, and inter-observer reproducibility of 3D IVW CMR in the quantification of IVW or plaque dimensions were respectively assessed in volunteers and patients as well as for different healthy subjectsub-groups (i.e. < 50 and >= 50 years). The agreement in vessel wall and lumen measurements between the 3D technique and the 2D TSE method was also investigated. In addition, the sample size required for future longitudinal clinical studies was calculated. Results: The intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) and Bland-Altman plots indicated excellent reproducibility and inter-method agreement for all morphologic measurements (All ICCs > 0.75). In addition, all ICCs of patients were equal to or higher than that of healthy subjects except maximum wall thickness. In volunteers, all ICCs of the age group of >= 50 years were equal to or higher than that of the age group of < 50 years. Normalized wall index and mean and maximum wall thickness were significantly larger in the age group of >= 50 years. To detect 5% - 20% difference between placebo and treatment groups, normalized wall index requires the smallest sample size while lumen volume requires the highest sample size. Conclusions: Whole-brain 3D IVW CMR is a reliable imaging method for the quantification of intracranial vessel dimensions and could potentially be useful for monitoring plaque progression and regression. |
