Esophageal Magnetic Resonance Fluoroscopy

Abstract: This study showed T1-FFE to be a more suitable sequence than TFE and that the 35-mm slice thickness was the optimum slice thickness for esophageal MR fluoroscopy.

“…To formulate the normality patterns, the observers assessed healthy volunteer images for a predetermined set of morphofunctional parameters based on those commonly used in the main oesophageal motility studies, manometry and barium fluoroscopy [11]. Morphological parameters therefore included oesophageal length (measured from the cricopharyngeal sphincter to the GOJ) and calibre (measured on the anteroposterior diameter); functional paragea (Fig.…”

“…Per elaborare i pattern di normalità, gli osservatori hanno valutato in tutti i volontari un insieme prestabilito di parametri morfofunzionali, con riferimento a quelli che sono i dati comunemente acquisiti con i principali esami utilizzati nello studio della motilità esofagea, ovvero la manometria e la fluoroscopia con bario [11]. Per quanto riguarda i parametri morfologici sono quindi stati valutati la lunghezza dell'esofago (misurata dallo sfintere cricofaringeo alla giunzione gastro-esofagea) ed il calibro esofageo (misurato sul diamtero anteroposteriore); i parametri funzionali considerati sono stati invece il tipo di peristalsi (pri- meters were type of peristalsis (primary, secondary or tertiary), velocity of peristalsis (calculated in centimetres per second as a ratio between oesophageal length and transit time), transit time of the contrast medium through the oesophageal lumen and GOJ function (continence and correct relaxation at the passage of the bolus) (Fig.…”

“…Today, MR fluoroscopy represents an actual topic of research in various clinical fields, but its employment and evolution in the functional imaging of the upper gastrointestinal tract still remains limited to few preliminary works [13][14][15] mainly based on the evaluation of the oro-pharyngeal swallowing phase. Only Manabe et al [16] evaluated oesophageal motility and morphology in healthy subjects, but current literature actually lacks clinical studies on subjects affected by oesophageal motility disorders. The aim of our work was to assess the diagnostic value of MR fluoroscopy in the evaluation of subjects affected by oesophageal motility disorders and to compare MR fluoroscopy results with the findings of manometry and BCR.…”
