Zusammenfassung: | Objectives
To examine a compressed sensing artificial intelligence (CSAI) framework to accelerate image acquisition in non-contrast-enhanced whole-heart bSSFP coronary magnetic resonance (MR) angiography.
Methods
Thirty healthy volunteers and 20 patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) scheduled for coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) were enrolled. Non-contrast-enhanced coronary MR angiography was performed with CSAI, compressed sensing (CS), and sensitivity encoding (SENSE) methods in healthy participants and with CSAI in patients. Acquisition time, subjective image quality score, and objective image quality measurement (blood pool homogeneity, signal-to-noise ratio [SNR], and contrast-to-noise ratio [CNR]) were compared among the three protocols. The diagnostic performance of CASI coronary MR angiography for predicting significant stenosis (≥ 50% diameter stenosis) on CCTA was evaluated. The Friedman test was performed to compare the three protocols.
Results
Acquisition time was significantly shorter in the CSAI and CS groups than in the SENSE group (10.2 ± 3.2 min vs. 10.9 ± 2.9 min vs. 13.0 ± 4.1 min,
