Abstract:
Objective:To explore the influence of injection methods of different contrast agents on CMR image quality,and further optimize"one-stop"examination process under the premise of the analysis for high-pressure bolus pressure curve of contrast-enhanced(CE)cardiac magnetic resonance(CMR).Methods:The data of CMR examination of 70 patients with old myocardial infarction who admitted to the department of emergency of Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University from December 2023 to December 2024 were selected as research objects.They were divided into an observation group and a control group by a simple randomization method,with 35 cases in each group.The observation group adopted gadolinium contrast agent injection with double-phase double-flow,with two bolus injections at 4 ml/s and 2 ml/s sequentially.The control group adopted the injection with single-phase double-flow,with only one bolus injection at 4 ml/s.The dynamic pressure time curve was drawn,and the total bolus dose and pressure peak of two kinds of injection methods were compared.The residual liquid samples of the observation group and the control group were collected after injection of contrast agent was conducted.After the residual liquids of 10 ml,20 ml and 30 ml were derived respectively,the T1 mapping sequence was used to collect signal intensity values,and to compared the difference of that between two groups.The signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)of left ventricular blood pool,infarcted myocardium and distal myocardium,and the contrast-to-noise ratios(CNR)between infarcted myocardium and blood pool,and between distal myocardium and blood pool were compared between the observation group and the control group.Results:There was no statistical difference in the total dose of bolus injection between the observation group and the control group(P>0.05).The peak value of the pressure of bolus injection in the observation group and control group were respectively(87.4±11.3)pound force per square inch(PSI)and(104.0±20.1)PSI,and the difference was statistically significant(t=5.81,P<0.05).T1 signal intensity values of 10 ml residual liquid and 20 mL residual liquid were respectively 1984.43±70.26 and 2190.56±195.96 in observation group,and they were respectively 1203.36±184.99 and 2884.64±349.39 in control group,and the differences were significant(t=-3.57,6.03,P<0.05).The T1 signal intensity value of 30mL residual fluid sample was 4371.75±75.16 in observation group,and that was 4261.86±110.68 in control group,and the difference was no significant(P>0.05).The SNR value of blood pool was(4.88±1.01)in observation group,which was lower than(8.25±1.36)in control group,and the difference of that between two groups was significant(t=6.11,P<0.05).The CNR values of infarcted myocardium and blood pool,of remote myocardium and blood pool between two groups were statistically significant(t=-4.79,-5.39,P<0.05).Conclusion:The contrast agent of high-pressure bolus injection with dual-phase dual-flow method can not only explore the time window of the extravasation of contrast agent,but also improve the SNR and the CNR of CMR images,and further optimize the CMR examination process.
