Noninvasive evaluation of global left ventricular function with use of cine nuclear magnetic resonance

Department of Radiology, University of California, San Francisco 94143.

Previous reports have validated the accuracy of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging for quantitating ventricular volumes and myocardial mass. In this study, a new rapid NMR imaging method, cine NMR imaging, was used to compare left ventricular volumes determined from the transverse plane and short-axis plane in healthy volunteers and patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. With use of the short-axis plane, left ventricular mass at end-systole and end-diastole were determined and left ventricular systolic wall thickening at three different levels was assessed. For validation in the current study, cine NMR imaging and two-dimensional echocardiographic measurements of left ventricular volumes were correlated. Left ventricular volumes of the normal volunteers (end-systolic volume = 34 +/- 3.8 ml, end-diastolic volume = 90.4 +/- 7.2 ml) and patients with cardiomyopathy (end-systolic volume = 173 +/- 28.3 ml, end-diastolic volume = 219.5 +/- 29.6 ml) obtained in the transverse plane were nearly identical to those obtained in the short-axis plane (normal volunteers, end-systolic volume = 30.3 +/- 3.5 ml, end-diastolic volume = 84.7 +/- 7.0 ml and patients with cardiomyopathy, end-systolic volume = 179.1 +/- 27.8 ml, end-diastolic volume = 227 +/- 30.9 ml) and correlated highly (r = 0.91) with volumes obtained by two-dimensional echocardiography. Assessment of left ventricular mass over a broad range using cine NMR imaging in a short-axis plane was identical at end-systole (normal volunteers, 117 +/- 10 g; patients with cardiomyopathy, 202 +/- 20 g) and end-diastole (normal volunteers, 115 +/- 10 g; patients with cardiomyopathy, 194 +/- 21 g).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
