What Is the Clinical Impact of Stress CMR After the ISCHEMIA Trial?

Abstract: After progressively receding for decades, cardiovascular mortality due to coronary artery disease has recently increased, and the associated healthcare costs are projected to double by 2030. While the 2019 European Society of Cardiology guidelines for chronic coronary syndromes recommend non-invasive cardiac imaging for patients with suspected coronary artery disease, the impact of non-invasive imaging strategies to guide initial coronary revascularization and improve long-term outcomes is still under debate. … Show more

“…An improved risk stratification using stress CMR could allow to identify high-risk patients who could benefit from treatment intensification, new therapy, and/or revascularization. Although the quantification of myocardial blood flow (MBF) by CMR was not performed in the current study, several reports described its potential interest in accurately and reproducibly assessing the burden of ischemia to guide optimal therapy ( 46 ). Along with its added prognostic value, the steadily increasing expertise and availability of stress CMR make it a safe, reproducible, and reliable test to stratify the risk of cardiovascular events in asymptomatic patients with prior stroke and without known CAD.…”

“…In this regard, from the extended STICHES, revascularization strategies plus medical therapies seem more effective than medical therapy alone in the treatment of patients with reduced EF, thus suggesting a real benefit to coronary revascularization in patients with both ischemia and HFrEF [ 167 , 168 ].…”

“…From ISCHEMIA, different questions arise regarding which ischemia test should be performed and which subcategories can benefit from a more aggressive treatment [16]. In this regard, from the extended STICHES, revascularization strategies plus medical therapies seem more effective than medical therapy alone in treatment of patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), thus suggesting a real benefit to coronary revascularization in patients with both ischemia and reduced EF heart failure (HFrEF) [17,18].…”

“…During the latest years, stress perfusion cardiac magnetic resonance (spCMR) showed a relevant impact in CAD stratification in many trial and registry studies [16,[19][20][21][22][23][24][25]. Differently from other imaging techniques, spCMR offers a holistic approach to the heart patient through the simultaneous evaluation of the triad systolic function-perfusion abnormalitiestissue characterization [26].…”
