Abstract:
Objective To compare the difference of echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in measurement of cardiac function in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM).Methods Totally 41 patients with DCM underwent echocardiography and MRI to measure cardiac function,the parameters included left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV),end systolic volume (LVESV),left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and stroke volume (SV).The vertical long axis (VLA),horizontal long axis (HLA) and short axis (SA) of heart were measured by echocardiography.The differences of echocardiography and MRI were compared by linear regression and linear correlation.Results ①The value of LVEDV and LVESV obtained by the two methods:the value of LVEDV [(262.6 ± 117.0) ml] and LVESV [(196.4 ± 109.8) ml] obtained by MRI were higher than those of echocardiography [(211.4 ± 90.6),(216.5 ± 71.5),(219.1 ± 80.1) ml;(153.3 ± 76.1),(153.9 ± 54.1),(157.0 ± 61.1) ml,all P < 0.05].②The value of SV and LVEF obtained by the two methods:the value of SV[(66.2 ± 21.3) ml] obtained by MRI was higher than that of echocardiography VLA [(58.1 ± 14.4) ml,P < 0.05].The value of LVEF [(25.2 ±7.2)%] obtained by MRI was lower than those of echocardiography HLA and echocardiography SA [(28.9 ± 6.1)%,(28.3 ± 6.1)%,all P < 0.05].③The value of LVEDV and LVESV obtained by echocardiography SA were associated with those obtained by MRI (r =0.785,0.653,all P < 0.05).The value of LVEF obtained by echocardiography VLA was associated with it obtained by MRI (r =0.690,P < 0.05).The value of SV obtained by echocardiography HLA and echocardiography SA were associated with those obtained by MRI (r =0.734,0.701,all P < 0.05).Conclusion There are differences in accuracy and reliability using echocardiography and MRI when measuring dilated cardiomyopathy heart function,which must be treated differently.
