Abstract:
Objective To study the relationship between energy metabolic changes tested by phosphorus-31 magnetic resonance(MR)spectroscopy(31P MRS)and the liver damage score(LDS)in rabbit models and investigate the diagnostic value of 31P MRS in acute hepatic injury.Methods A total of 30 rabbits were received different radiation dose(ranging from 5 Gy to 20 Gy)to establish acute hepatic injury models.31P MRS was than carried out 24 hrs after radiation.The rabbits were divided into mild(LDS≤3 U),moderate(LDS 3-6 U)and severe(LDS＞6 U)hepatie injury groups.Ten healthy rabbits were served as controls.MR examination was performed on a 1.5 T imager using a 1H/31P surface coil by the 2D chemical shift imaging technique.The relative quantification of phosphomonoesters(PME),phosphodiesters (PDE), inorganic phosphate (Pi) and adenosine severe hepatic injury groups were 1.83±0.33,1.55±0.24,1.27±0.07 and 0.98±0.18,respectively,with significant differences(P＜0.05).The ATP level was progressively decreased with the increase of severity Of hepatic injury.The relative quantification of PME and Pi were decreased in severe hepatic injury group compared to control group(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference higher in moderate(1.94±0.50)and severe(1.96±0.72)hepatic injury groups compared to control group(1.43±0.31)and mild hepatic injury group(1.40+0.38)(P＜0.05).No significant difference was found in ratio of relative quantification of other phosphorus metabolites.Conclusions 31P MRS is a useful method in evaluating acute hepatic injury.The relative quantification of hepatic ATP level,which can reflect the severity of acute hepatic injury,is correlated with LDS.
