Official title

Comprehensive Free-breathing 3D Cine Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Conventional CMR is based on breath-hold 2D cine image acquisitions which are sequentially acquired in different imaging planes. The necessity of precisely planning and then acquiring multiple 2D imaging planes during breath-hold is relatively inefficient and leads to CMR exam times of ≤60 minutes. However, some patients are too ill or young to hold their breath. Furthermore, 2D images sometimes fail to provide a complete picture of complex 3D anatomy of patients with complex morphology. To address these limitations, we have recently developed a 3D cine (3 spatial dimensions plus time) CMR technique. Rather than acquiring 2D cine images in multiple orientations during breath-hold, this approach allows one to acquire a free-breathing 3D block of data for each phase of cardiac cycle that can be reformatted offline into the desired views without adding to the exam time. This added efficiency should lead to a reduction in CMR exam time, increasing patient comfort, and making CMR exam easy and available for all. In addition, the 3D nature of the data may yield more complete information about the anatomy and physiology. In this proposal, we will examine the agreement between the 2D cine and 3D cine CMR techniques with regard to left and right ventricular volumes and systemic and pulmonary blood flow circulation. The internal consistency of the measurements between the 2 techniques will be also investigated. This study will focus on children because they may benefit the most from the short, improved efficiency, and free-breathing CMR exams.
