“…CMR angiography showed an 81% negative predictive value for excluding CAD in a multicenter controlled clinical trial, and meta-analyses 51,52 have shown diagnostic sensitivity and specificity ranging from 87% to 88% and 56% to 70%, respectively, which in general is lower than the diagnostic accuracy of CCTA.…”

“…Furthermore, MRI does not expose the patient to ionizing radiation, thus, the usefulness of MRI has been investigated widely. However, the diagnostic accuracy of cardiac MRI in CAD varies widely according to the literature, with sensitivity ranging from 38% to 83%, and specificity ranging from 57% to 95% due to variable scanning protocols used in the studies [22]. Recent technical developments in MRI, especially with the emergence of 3.0 T MR imaging system have been shown to be a promising technique for performing cardiac MRI, with significant improvement of diagnostic value for detection of CAD [23,24].…”

Coronary artery disease is the leading cause of death in advanced countries. Early detection and diagnosis of coronary artery disease plays an important role in the identification of disease severity and prediction of disease outcome, consequently improving patient management. Diagnosis and management of coronary artery disease is increasingly dependent on less-invasive imaging modalities, including coronary CT angiography, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, cardiac radionuclide imaging such as SPECT and PET modalities. Rapid developments of these imaging modalities have significantly improved the diagnostic performance of each imaging technique with high diagnostic accuracy achieved in both diagnostic and prognostic value in coronary artery disease. This editorial provides an overview of the diagnostic applications of a variety of less-invasive imaging modalities in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease. This special issue of "Arteriosclerotic Vascular Disease: Part II" in the journal of Clinical and Experimental Cardiology will give particular attention to contributions focusing on the clinical applications of these imaging modalities in the arteriosclerotic vascular disease, in particular, coronary artery disease.

“…A meta-analysis of CAD diagnostic performance of coronary MRA [20] reports a moderately high sensitivity for detecting proximal stenoses but notes that distal segments can not be evaluated. The clinical study conducted in [21] on congenital heart disease diagnostic based on SSFP MR Imaging focuses therefore on proximal segments.…”

International audienceIn this paper, an analysis of the coronary trees using Magnetic Resonance Angiography (MRA) is performed. The objective is to estimate how much MRA is capable to provide insights into the vascular network. A qualitative exploration of the MRA volumes with anatomical labelling by experts is rst performed, Quantitative vessel features are then manually extracted providing a ground truth which is further compared to a semi-automatic extraction. This evaluation is carried out on 10 datasets of the SSFP MRA sequence and allows getting a more precise view on the current state-of-the- art as well as on future achievements to be done

Diagnostic performance of coronary magnetic resonance angiography as compared against conventional x-ray angiography

Abstract: In evaluable segments of the native coronary arteries, CMRA has moderately high sensitivity for detecting significant proximal stenoses and may have value for exclusion of significant multivessel CAD in selected subjects considered for diagnostic catheterization.
