Parametric Hemodynamic 4D Flow MRI Maps for the Characterization of Chronic Thoracic Descending Aortic Dissection

Abstract: Background: Systematic evaluation of complex flow in the true lumen and false lumen (TL, FL) is needed to better understand which patients with chronic descending aortic dissection (DAD) are predisposed to complications. Purpose: To develop quantitative hemodynamic maps from 4D flow MRI for evaluating TL and FL flow characteristics. Study Type: Retrospective. Population: In all, 20 DAD patients (age = 60 AE 11 years; 12 male) (six medically managed type B AD [TBAD], 14 repaired type A AD [rTAAD] now with ascen… Show more

“…When used in cardiovascular imaging, 4D flow MRI helps in the evaluation and characterization of various congenital 1‐4 and adult heart diseases, 5‐8 particularly several aortic diseases 9‐12 . The unique ability of 4D flow MRI to measure advanced metrics such as flow energetics and wall shear stress (WSS) has given newer insights into disease pathophysiology that could not be obtained through other existing imaging modalities 13‐17 . However, these benefits come at the expense of long scan times associated with multi‐dimensional imaging, hindering the adoption of 4D flow MRI into routine clinical imaging.…”

“…[9][10][11][12] The unique ability of 4D flow MRI to measure advanced metrics such as flow energetics and wall shear stress (WSS) has given newer insights into disease pathophysiology that could not be obtained through other existing imaging modalities. [13][14][15][16][17] However, these benefits come at the expense of long scan times associated with multi-dimensional imaging, hindering the adoption of 4D flow MRI into routine clinical imaging. In cardiothoracic applications, the scan times are further increased by the need for respiratory motion compensation, where typically a respiratory navigator follows the movement of the diaphragm, and only accepts data acquired in end-expiration.…”

“…For generation of parametric reverse flow maps, voxelwise flow reversal was summed over the cardiac cycle and flow reversal fraction (FRF=Reverse FlowForward Flow×100%) was calculated according to methods previously described. 27,37,38 . Briefly, each voxel in the aortic volume was analyzed to determine the direction of forward flow (AAo to DAo) and reverse flow (DAo to AAo), as defined by the aortic centerline (Fig.…”

“…It provides an opportunity to repair residual descending dissections through endovascular approaches into the existing stent‐graft, reducing the morbidity of another open operation. 4D flow MRI has been used to quantitatively characterize flow dynamics in chronic residual descending aortic dissections 2 . More studies are needed to define the clinical relevance of absolute 4D flow MRI parameter values but in select cases, the modality can provide information to help guide clinical care.…”
