ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of coronary CT angiography(CCTA)-feature tracking(FT) for assessing global and regional myocardial strain in patients with heart failure(HF).Methods:From July 2019 to December 2020, twenty-five patients diagnosed with HF from Peking Union Medical College Hospital were prospectively enrolled into the study. All patients underwent retrospective electrocardiogram-gated CCTA and cardiac MR (CMR) imaging within 7 days. CCTA-FT and CMR-FT were undertaken using cvi 42 dedicated commercial software to measure global and regional strain parameters, including global peak radial strain (GPRS), global peak circumferential strain (GPCS) and global peak longitudinal strain (GPLS), as well as peak radial strain (PRS), peak circumferential strain (PCS) and peak longitudinal strain (PLS) of left ventricular basal segment, middle segment and apical segment. Conventional left ventricular functional parameters were also calculated, including left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular stroke volume (LVSV) and left ventricular mass index (LVMI). Paired t test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to compare the differences of measurements between CCTA group and CMR group. Pearson or Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the two groups. Inter-and intra-observer consistence in CCTA group was evaluated by intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) analysis. Results:The effective radiation dose of CCTA examination was 6.00 (4.86,7.63) mSv. Inter-and intra-observer consistence in CCTA group was excellent, and the ICC value was 0.85-0.98. In the overall strain parameters, GPCS in CCTA group[-8.10%(-10.32%, -5.20%)] was significantly lower than that of CMR group[-8.49%(-13.79%, -5.95%)] ( Z=-2.15, P=0.031). There was no significant difference in GPRS and GPRS between the two measurement methods ( P>0.05). Strong correlations were observed between GPRS, GPCS and GPLS ( r=0.65, 0.63, 0.71,all P<0.001). For local strain parameters, PCS in the middle segment and apical segment of CCTA group were lower than those of CMR group ( Z=-2.17, -2.62, all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in PCS of basal segment, PRS and PLS of all segments between groups (all P>0.05). The PCS and PLS of basal segment, PRS of middle segment and PRS of apical segment were moderately correlated ( r=0.46, 0.52, 0.58, 0.53, P<0.05); The other local strain parameters were strongly correlated, the range of r value was from 0.64 to 0.70 (all P<0.001). For left ventricular functional parameters, LVEF, LVSV and LVMI showed no significant differences between groups ( P>0.05), and the correlation was extremely strong ( r=0.90, 0.89, 0.96, all P<0.001). Conclusions:The repeatability of CCTA-FT technique in measuring myocardial strain was good, and the correlation of parameters measured by CCTA-FT technique and CMR-FT technique was excellent. Therefore, CCTA-FT technique can be used as a new noninvasive and simple method to evaluate myocardial motor function.
