Combined Assessment of Myocardial Perfusion and Late Gadolinium Enhancement in Patients After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention or Bypass Grafts

Abstract: A combined CMR protocol for the assessment of myocardial perfusion and LGE is feasible for the detection of relevant coronary vessel stenosis even in patients who previously were treated by PCI or CAG in a routine clinical setting. However, diagnostic accuracy is reduced in patients with CABG. This could be due to different flow and perfusion kinetic. Further studies are needed to optimize the clinical protocols especially in post-surgical patients.

“…Patients with a known history of prior CAD, MI, or prior PCI were eligible for the study; however, patients with prior coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) were excluded as adenosine stress CMR has been shown to have different test characteristics in this population. 18 Exclusion criteria included known EF<45%, evaluation for workup of cardiomyopathy, significant valvular pathology, pulmonary hypertension, or transplant vasculopathy, GFR < 45 mL/min/1.73m2, contraindications to MRI including implantable cardiac devices, contraindications to adenosine infusion (asthma or severe COPD), or a history of prior gadolinium contrast reaction. All patients had their renal function assessed within 30 days prior to the CMR study.…”
