Purpose: We developed a feature-tracking algorithm for use with electrocardiography-gated high-resolution 13 N-ammonia positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, and we hypothesized it could be used to clarify the association between right ventricular (RV) longitudinal strain (LS) and right coronary artery (RCA) ischemia. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between the reduction of regional myocardial flow reserve (MFR) in RCA territories and PET-derived LS of the RV free wall.
Methods: Ninety-three patients with coronary artery stenosis>50%,diagnosed by coronary computed tomography angiography, and 10 controls were retrospectively analyzed. RV-LS in the free wall was measured by a feature-tracking technique on the resting and stressed 13 N-ammonia PET images of horizontal long axis slices. The patients were sub-grouped according to regional MFR values at the territories of RCA, left anterior descending artery (LAD), and left circumflex coronary artery (LCx): RCA-MFR < 2.0 [n = 34], RCA-MFR ≥ 2.0 but MFR < 2.0 at LAD or LCx territories [n = 11], and MFR ≥ 2.0 for all territories [n=48]. Stress and resting RV-LS were compared in each of the four groups. Multiple comparisons of RV-LS among the four groups were performed in the stress and resting state.
Results: Decreased stress RV-LS in patients with an RCA-MFR < 2.0 was observed. In the patients with MFR ≥ 2.0 for all territories, the stressed RV-LS was significantly increased compared to that in the resting state. Significantly decreased RV free wall LS during adenosine stress in patients with RCA-MFR < 2.0 was observed in the other three groups.
Conclusions: We measured RV myocardial LS using feature tracking in cine imaging of 13 N-ammonia PET. The results of this study suggest that PET-derived stressed RV-LS is useful for detecting reduced RV myocardial motion due to ischemia in the RCA territory.

We measured right ventricular (RV) strain by applying a novel post-processing technique to conventional short‐axis cine magnetic resonance imaging in the repaired tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) and investigated whether pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) changes the RV strain. Twenty‐four patients with repaired TOF who underwent PVR and 16 healthy controls were enrolled. Global maximum and minimum principal strains (GPSmax, GPSmin) and global circumferential and longitudinal strains (GCS, GLS) were measured from short‐axis cine images reconstructed radially along the long axis. Strain parameters before and after PVR were compared using paired t‐tests. One‐way ANOVA with Tukey post‐hoc analysis was used for comparisons between the before and after PVR groups and the control group. There were no differences in strain parameters before and after PVR. The GPSmax before PVR was lower than that in the control group (P = 0.002). Before and after PVR, GCSs were higher and GLSs were lower than those in the control group (before and after GCSs: P = 0.002 for both, before and after GLSs: P < 0.0001 and P = 0.0003). RV strains from radially reconstructed short‐axis cine images revealed unchanged myocardial motion after PVR. When compared to the control group, changes in GCS and GLS in TOF patients before and after PVR might be due to RV remodeling.

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the diagnostic performance of dynamic chest radiography (DCR) and investigate its added value to chest radiography (CR) in detecting pulmonary embolism (PE). Methods: Of 775 patients who underwent CR and DCR in our hospital between June 2020 and August 2022, individuals who also underwent contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) of the chest within 72 h were included in this study. PE or non-PE diagnosis was confirmed by CECT and the subsequent clinical course. The enrolled patients were randomized into two groups. Six observers, including two thoracic radiologists, two cardiologists, and two radiology residents, interpreted each chest radiograph with and without DCR using a crossover design with a washout period. Diagnostic performance was compared between CR with and without DCR in the standing and supine positions. Results: Sixty patients (15 PE, 45 non-PE) were retrospectively enrolled. The addition of DCR to CR significantly improved the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and area under the curve (AUC) in the standing (35.6–70.0 % [P < 0.0001], 84.8–93.3 % [P = 0.0010], 72.5–87.5 % [P < 0.0001], and 0.66–0.85 [P < 0.0001], respectively) and supine (33.3–65.6 % [P < 0.0001], 78.5–92.2 % [P < 0.0001], 67.2–85.6 % [P < 0.0001], and 0.62–0.80 [P = 0.0002], respectively) positions for PE detection. No significant differences were found between the AUC values of DCR with CR in the standing and supine positions (P = 0.11) or among radiologists, cardiologists, and radiology residents (P = 0.14–0.68). Conclusions: Incorporating DCR with CR demonstrated moderate sensitivity, high specificity, and high accuracy in detecting PE, all of which were significantly higher than those achieved with CR alone, regardless of scan position, observer expertise, or experience.

In patients with apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), progressive electrocardiographic changes are observed during long-term follow-up. However, it is difficult to correspond these changes to the specific myocardial changes. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging can elucidate myocardial changes by late gadolinium enhancement. Here, we present the long-term follow-up (>18 years) on a patient with apical HCM, whereupon, precise and continuous changes in the myocardium, causing ST segment and T wave changes on electrocardiography, were observed on CMR images. The combination of electrocardiography and CMR facilitates management of patients with apical HCM because it helps explain and understand the nature of electrocardiography changes over time.

Dynamic chest radiography (DCR) is a novel functional radiographic imaging technique that can be used to visualize pulmonary perfusion without using contrast media. Although it has many advantages and clinical utility, most radiologists are unfamiliar with this technique because of its novelty. This review aims to (1) explain the basic principles of lung perfusion assessment using DCR, (2) discuss the advantages of DCR over other imaging modalities, and (3) review multiple specific clinical applications of DCR for pulmonary vascular diseases and compare them with other imaging modalities.

The pathophysiology of myocarditis is associated with mild inflammation and may progress silently, or in severe cases such as fulminant myocarditis, may lead to sudden hemodynamic compromise. An invasive myocardial biopsy is generally required for a definitive myocarditis diagnosis. Alternatively, cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), which evaluates myocardial characteristics and cardiac function, can be used as a noninvasive tool for diagnosing myocarditis. We describe the cases of a 49-year-old woman with mild acute eosinophilic myocarditis and a 48-year-old man with severe acute lymphocytic myocarditis. CMR was performed during the acute and convalescent phases in both cases. Compared with mild myocarditis, CMR in severe myocarditis showed higher T2 values and decreased left ventricular and atrial volumes and strains; however, the right ventricular strain was preserved. Late gadolinium enhancement showed faint contrast enhancement in the whole and strong enhancement in the local myocardium. Follow-up CMR showed recovery from myocardial inflammation and cardiac function. Some late gadolinium enhancement persisted whereas acute inflammation-associated enhancement disappeared. This case report highlights the differences between the cardiac parameters of patients with mild and severe myocarditis. Severe myocardial inflammation can be caused by severe heart failure owing to the concurrent reduction of cardiac function and compliance. Additionally, preserved right ventricular strain may predict cardiac function recovery in acute myocarditis. Noninvasive and repeatable CMR provides information on myocardial characteristics, cardiac function, and hemodynamics in a single scan at that time, which is useful not only for diagnosis but also for severity assessment and patient management in acute myocarditis.

Background: Due to the limitation of spatial resolution, cardiac nuclear medicine images have not been applied to feature-tracking method to automatic extraction of myocardial contours. We have successfully applied the feature-tracking method to high-resolution cine ＾<13>N-ammonia positron emission tomography (PET) images to calculate the regional myocardial strains. Here, we investigate the potential of ＾<13>N-ammonia PET-derived strain to detect ischemia-related wall motion abnormality. / Methods: Data of adenosine-stress/rest ＾<13>N-ammonia PET for 95 coronary artery disease patients was retrospectively analyzed. Using an original algorithm dedicated to ＾<13>N-ammonia PET, the longitudinal strain (LS) corresponding to the three main coronary artery territories (RCA, LAD, and LCX) was calculated from semi-automatic endocardial contours extraction on cine ＾<13>N-ammonia PET images of the left ventricular long-axis. The presence of ischemia in three main territories was determined from rest and stress-perfusion images. / Results: In all three coronary territories, LS at stress was significantly smaller at rest in the ischemic region RCA: -19.2±8.0% vs. -22.7±6.1%, LAD: -19.0±6.9% vs. -24.4±6.4%, LCX: -20.5%±7.6% vs. -22.6±6.9%). In contrast, in the non-ischemic region, there was no significant difference between the LS at stress and at rest. Receiver-operating-characteristic analysis revealed that using the optimal cutoff of the LS ratio of stress to rest, ischemia could be diagnosed with area under the curve of 0.82 in the RCA, 0.86 in the LAD, and 0.69 in the LCX. / Conclusions: Myocardial strain derived from endocardial feature-tracking of ＾<13>N-ammonia PET cine imaging is reduced in the ischemia induced by adenosine-stress. The LS ratio of stress to rest may detect wall motion abnormality related to ischemia.

Right Ventricular Strain Derived from ¹³N-ammonia PET and Myocardial Ischemia

Objective: It is important to assess myocardial motion for not only left ventricle but also right ventricle. We developed a feature-tracking (FT) algorithm for use with electrocardiography-gated high-resolution 13N-ammonia positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. Previously, we reported that the left ventricular strain value derived from PET-FT analysis can detect a decrease of ischemic myocardium motion. Further, the PET-derived left ventricular longitudinal strain (LS) value was validated referred to cardiac magnetic resonance. In the present research, we applied right ventricular (RV) strain analysis based on the FT algorithm to high-resolution 13N-ammonia PET images, and investigated the association between myocardial ischemia and RV myocardial motion.
Methods: Ninety-three patients with coronary artery stenosis > 50%, diagnosed by coronary computed tomography angiography, and 10 controls were retrospectively analyzed. RV-LS in the free wall was measured by a FT technique on the resting and stressed 13N-ammonia PET images of horizontal long-axis slices. The patients were sub-grouped according to summed stress score (SSS) values: SSS>12 as severe ischemia [n=13], 4≤SSS≤12 as moderate ischemia [n=29], and SSS<4 as normal [n=51]. Stress and resting RV-LS were compared in each of the four groups. Multiple comparisons of RV-LS among the four groups were performed in the stress and resting state.
Results: Decreased absolute RV-LS values at stress in the groups of severe and moderate ischemia were observed with respect to those in the groups of normal and control. Increased absolute RV-LS values at stress state in patients with normal and control were observed with respect to those at resting state.
Conclusion: We measured RV myocardial LS using FT in high-resolution cine imaging of 13N-ammonia PET. The results of this study suggest that PET-derived RV-LS is useful for detecting reduced RV myocardial motion due to ischemia in the patients with coronary artery disease.

Introduction: Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) can generate virtual non-contrast (VNC) images. Herein, we sought to improve the accuracy of VNC images by identifying the optimal slope of contrast media (SCM) for VNC-image generation based on the iodine concentration and subject's body size. Methods: We used DECT to scan a multi-energy phantom including four iodine concentration rods (15, 10, 5, and 2 mg/mL), and 240 VNC images (eight SCM ranging from 0.49 to 0.56 × three body sizes × ten scans) that were generated by three-material decomposition. The CT number of each iodine and solid water rod part was measured in each VNC image. The difference in the CT number between the iodine and the solid water rod part was calculated and compared using paired t-test or repeated measures ANOVA. Results: The SCM that achieved an absolute value of the difference in CT number of <5.0 Hounsfield units (HU) for all body sizes simultaneously was greater at lower iodine concentration (SCM of 0.5, 0.51, and 0.53 at 10, 5, and 2 mg/mL iodine, respectively). At an iodine concentration of 15 mg/mL, no SCM achieved an absolute difference of <5.0 HU in CT number for all body sizes simultaneously. At all iodine concentrations, the SCM achieving the minimal difference in the CT number increased with the increase in body size. Conclusion: By adjusting the SCM according to the iodine concentration and body size, it is possible to generate VNC images with an accuracy of <5.0 HU. Implications for practice: Improving the accuracy of VNC images minimizing incomplete iodine subtraction would make it possible to replace true non-contrast (TNC) images with VNC images and reduce the radiation dose.

Accurate measurement of right ventricular (RV) size using transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is important for evaluating the severity of congenital heart diseases. The RV end-diastolic area index (RVEDAi) determined using TTE is used to assess RV dilatation; however, the tracing line of the RVEDAi has not been clearly defined by the guidelines. This study aimed to determine the exact tracing method for RVEDAi using TTE. We retrospectively studied 107 patients with atrial septal defects who underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) and TTE. We measured the RVEDAi according to isoechoic and high-echoic lines, and compared it with the RVEDAi measured using CMR. The isoechoic line was defined as the isoechoic endocardial border of the RV free wall, whereas the high-echoic line was defined as the high-echoic endocardial border of the RV free wall more outside than the isoechoic line. RVEDAi measured using high-echoic line (high-RVEDAi) was more accurately related to RVEDAi measured using CMR than that measured using isoechoic line (iso-RVEDAi). The difference in the high-RVEDAi was 0.3 cm2/m2, and the limit of agreement (LOA) was − 3.7 to 4.3 cm2/m2. With regard to inter-observer variability, high-RVEDAi was superior to iso-RVEDAi. High-RVEDAi had greater agreement with CMR-RVEDAi than with iso-RVEDAi. High-RVEDAi can become the standard measurement of RV size using two-dimensional TTE.

Objective: We propose a deep learning-based fully automatic right ventricle (RV) segmentation technique that targets radially reconstructed long-axis (RLA) images of the center of the RV region in routine short axis (SA) cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) images. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to compare the accuracy of deep learning-based fully automatic segmentation of RLA images with the accuracy of conventional deep learning-based segmentation in SA orientation in terms of the measurements of RV strain parameters. Materials and methods: We compared the accuracies of the above-mentioned methods in RV segmentations and in measuring RV strain parameters by Dice similarity coefficients (DSCs) and correlation coefficients. Results: DSC of RV segmentation of the RLA method exhibited a higher value than those of the conventional SA methods (0.84 vs. 0.61). Correlation coefficient with respect to manual RV strain measurements in the fully automatic RLA were superior to those in SA measurements (0.5–0.7 vs. 0.1–0.2). Discussion: Our proposed RLA realizes accurate fully automatic extraction of the entire RV region from an available CMR cine image without any additional imaging. Our findings overcome the complexity of image analysis in CMR without the limitations of the RV visualization in echocardiography.

Cardiac cine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a widely used technique for the noninvasive assessment of cardiac functions. Deep neural networks have achieved considerable progress in overcoming various challenges in cine MRI analysis. However, deep learning models cannot be used for classification because limited cine MRI data are available. To overcome this problem, features from cine image settings are derived by handcrafting and addition of other clinical features to the classical machine learning approach for ensuring the model fits the MRI device settings and image parameters required in the analysis. In this study, a novel method was proposed for classifying heart disease (cardiomyopathy patient groups) using only segmented output maps. In the encoder–decoder network, the fully convolutional EfficientNetB5-UNet was modified to perform the semantic segmentation of the MRI image slice. A two-dimensional thickness algorithm was used to combine the segmentation outputs for the 2D representation of images of the end-diastole (ED) and end-systole (ES) cardiac volumes. The thickness images were subsequently used for classification by using a few-shot model with an adaptive subspace classifier. Model performance was verified by applying the model to the 2017MICCAIMedical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention dataset. High segmentation performance was achieved as follows: the average Dice coefficients of segmentation were 96.24% (ED) and 89.92% (ES) for the left ventricle (LV); the values for the right ventricle (RV) were 92.90% (ED) and 86.92% (ES). The values for myocardium were 88.90% (ED) and 90.48% (ES). An accuracy score of 92% was achieved in the classification of various cardiomyopathy groups without clinical features. A novel rapid analysis approach was proposed for heart disease diagnosis, especially for cardiomyopathy conditions using cine MRI based on segmented output maps.

Four-chamber (4CH) cine cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) facilitates simultaneous evaluation of cardiac chambers; however, manual segmentation is time-consuming and subjective in practice. We evaluated deep learning based on a U-Net convolutional neural network (CNN) for fully automated segmentation of the four cardiac chambers using 4CH cine CMR. Cine CMR datasets from patients were randomly assigned for training (1400 images from 70 patients), validation (600 images from 30 patients), and testing (1000 images from 50 patients). We validated manual and automated segmentation based on the U-Net CNN using the dice similarity coefficient (DSC) and Spearman's rank correlation coefficient (ρ); p < 0.05 was statistically significant. The overall median DSC showed high similarity (0.89). Automated segmentation correlated strongly with manual segmentation in all chambers-the left and right ventricles, and the left and right atria (end-diastolic area: ρ = 0.88, 0.76, 0.92, and 0.87; end-systolic area: ρ = 0.81, 0.81, 0.92, and 0.83, respectively; p < 0.01). The area under the curve for the left ventricle, left atrium, right ventricle, and right atrium showed high scores (0.96, 0.99, 0.88, and 0.96, respectively). Fully automated segmentation could facilitate simultaneous evaluation and detection of enlargement of the four cardiac chambers without any time-consuming analysis.

Objective: Heart transplant rejection leads to cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV). 13N-ammonia positron emission tomography (PET) can be useful in detecting CAV, as it can evaluate both epicardial vessels and microvasculature. In this study, we evaluated the regional wall motion in heart transplant patients using our PET-specific feature-tracking (FT) algorithm for myocardial strain calculation and validated it using a cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) FT strain as a reference.
Methods: A total of 15 heart transplant patients who underwent both 13N-ammonia PET and CMR within 3 months were retrospectively enrolled. The same slice position of short-axis cine images of the middle slice of left ventricle (LV) and the same slice position of horizontal long-axis cine images were selected for the two modalities to measure the circumferential strain (CS) and longitudinal strain (LS), respectively. Based on the FT technique, time-strain curves were calculated by semi-automatic tracking of the endocardial contour on cine images throughout a cardiac cycle. The peak value in the time-strain curve was defined as the representative value. Correlations of CS and LS between PET and CMR were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficients. The inter-modality error of strain measurements was evaluated using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) with two-way random single measures.
Results: Excellent correlations of CS and LS between PET and CMR were observed (CS: r = 0.80; p < 0.01; LS: r = 0.87; p < 0.01). Excellent ICCs were observed (0.89 and 0.85) in CS and LS derived from PET.
Conclusions: We propose the first PET strain showing an excellent agreement with the CMR strain and high reproducibility in measurement.

Four-chamber (4CH) cine cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) facilitates simultaneous evaluation of cardiac chambers; however, manual segmentation is time-consuming and subjective in practice. We evaluated deep learning based on a U-Net convolutional neural network (CNN) for fully automated segmentation of the four cardiac chambers using 4CH cine CMR. Cine CMR datasets from patients were randomly assigned for training (1400 images from 70 patients), validation (600 images from 30 patients), and testing (1000 images from 50 patients). We validated manual and automated segmentation based on the U-Net CNN using the dice similarity coefficient (DSC) and Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient (ρ); p < 0.05 was statistically significant. The overall median DSC showed high similarity (0.89). Automated segmentation correlated strongly with manual segmentation in all chambers—the left and right ventricles, and the left and right atria (end-diastolic area: ρ = 0.88, 0.76, 0.92, and 0.87; end-systolic area: ρ = 0.81, 0.81, 0.92, and 0.83, respectively; p < 0.01). The area under the curve for the left ventricle, left atrium, right ventricle, and right atrium showed high scores (0.96, 0.99, 0.88, and 0.96, respectively). Fully automated segmentation could facilitate simultaneous evaluation and detection of enlargement of the four cardiac chambers without any time-consuming analysis.

本報では心臓移植患者に対し、PET特異的なfeature tracking(FT)法によるアルゴリズムを用いて、局所壁運動を評価した。その際、リファレンス画像には心血管MRI(CMR) FTから得られた心筋ストレイン数値を用いて、13N-アンモニアPETによる心筋ストレインの数値を検証した。なお、対象患者には、3ヵ月以内に13N-アンモニアPET検査とCMRを受けた心臓移植患者15例(男性10例、女性5例、平均年齢43±14歳)とした。シネMRI画像では、左室中央スライス部位の短軸シネ画像と同一のスライス位置、水平方向の長軸シネ画像と同一のスライス位置について、PETとCMRそれぞれの円周方向ストレイン(CS)、縦方向ストレイン(LS)の測定に用いて評価した。またFTに基づき、時間-ストレイン曲線は、心周期全体を通して、シネ画像上の心内膜輪郭を半自動トラッキングで求め、時間-ストレイン曲線におけるピーク値を代表値に設定した。PETおよびCMRにおけるCSとLSの相関性は、Pearson相関係数で解析し、PETとCMRにおけるストレイン測定値の誤差は、two-way random single measuresによる級内相関係数(ICC)で調べた。その結果、PETおよびCMRのCSとLSで、極めて良好な相関性が得られ、PETのCSとLSで、優れたICCが認められた。以上より、PETストレインはCMRストレインと良好に一致し、測定値も再現性が高いことが確認された。

<i>Background</i>: Due to the limitation of spatial resolution, cardiac nuclear medicine images have not been applied to feature-tracking method to automatic extraction of myocardial contours. We have successfully applied the feature-tracking method to high-resolution cine ¹³N-ammonia positron emission tomography (PET) images to calculate the regional myocardial strains. Here, we investigate the potential of ¹³N-ammonia PET-derived strain to detect ischemia-related wall motion abnormality.<br><i>Methods</i>: Data of adenosine-stress/rest ¹³N-ammonia PET for 95 coronary artery disease patients was retrospectively analyzed. Using an original algorithm dedicated to ¹³N-ammonia PET, the longitudinal strain (LS) corresponding to the three main coronary artery territories [right coronary artery: RCA, left anterior descending artery (LAD), and left circumflex coronary artery (LCX)] was calculated from semi-automatic endocardial contours extraction on cine ¹³N-ammonia PET images of the left ventricular long-axis. The presence of ischemia in three main territories was determined from rest and stress-perfusion images.<br><i>Results</i>: In all three coronary territories, LS at stress was significantly smaller at rest in the ischemic region RCA: -19.2±8.0% vs. -22.7±6.1%, LAD: -19.0±6.9% vs. -24.4±6.4%, LCX: -20.5%±7.6% vs. -22.6±6.9%). In contrast, in the non-ischemic region, there was no significant difference between the LS at stress and at rest. Receiver-operating-characteristic analysis revealed that using the optimal cutoff of the LS ratio of stress to rest, ischemia could be diagnosed with area under the curve of 0.82 in the RCA, 0.86 in the LAD, and 0.69 in the LCX.<br><i>Conclusions</i>: Myocardial strain derived from endocardial feature-tracking of ¹³N-ammonia PET cine imaging is reduced in the ischemia induced by adenosine-stress. The LS ratio of stress to rest may detect wall motion abnormality related to ischemia.

Background: Assessing endocardial strain using a single 13N-ammonia positron emission tomography (PET) scan would be clinically useful, given the association between ischemia and myocardial deformation. However, no software has been developed for strain analysis using PET. We evaluated the clinical potential of feature tracking-derived strain values measured using PET, based on associations
with the myocardial flow reserve (MFR).
Methods and Results: This retrospective study included 95 coronary artery disease patients who underwent myocardial 13N-ammonia PET. Semi-automatic measurements were made using a feature-tracking technique during myocardial cine imaging, and values were calculated using a 16-segment model. Adenosine-stressed global circumferential strain (CS) and global longitudinal strain (LS) values were compared with global MFR values. Stressed and resting global strain values were also compared. Global strain values were significantly lower in 39 patients with abnormal MFRs [<2.0] than in 56 patients with normal MFRs [≥2.0]. The global CS values in the stressed state were significantly decreased than the resting state values in patients with abnormal MFRs.
Conclusions: This study applied endocardial feature-tracking to 13N-ammonia PET, and the results suggested that blood flow and myocardial motility could be clinically assessed in ischemic patients using a single PET scan.

Nondrug therapy for arrhythmia patients had been developed dramatically until recent years. Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), a nondrug therapy for arrhythmia, is especially utilized for the treatment of left ventricular (LV) severe heart failure caused by cardiac dyssynchrony. Prolonged QRS duration (≥130 ms) is strongly used as a CRT indication criterion, but QRS is not the direct clinical index of mechanical contraction delay of the LV myocardium. Therefore, identifying the presence of dyssynchrony by diagnostic imaging is necessary. Echocardiography is widely used for the assessment of dyssynchrony as a standard diagnostic imaging. Several studies have addressed the efficacy of cardiovascular magnetic resonance feature tracking (CMR-FT) in the diagnosis of dyssynchrony for arry- thmia patients. In addition, cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) were not avail- able to examine CMR until recent years; however, new MR-conditional CIEDs have become available for use before and after CRT. Recently, diagnostic imaging using CMR-FT has been attracting attention for the assessment of dyssynchrony. However, a strong metal artifact caused by CIEDs may make the analysis difficult after CRT implantation. Strain analysis us- ing short-axis (SA) cine CMR overcame this issue of artifact by enabling slice selection by avoiding artifact. Moreover, circumferential strain has superiority over other strain methods with respect to sensitivity, and we focused on these advantages. This case illustrates that circumferential strain with CMR-FT using SA cine CMR is useful in the assessment of improvement of myocardial motion after CRT and can provide useful additional information with imaging to determine the responders of CRT.

The application of cine MRI to lung disease has been technically challenging. In this study, we exploited optical flow analysis combined with rapid acquisition of cine MRI using compressed sensing to detect differences in regional lung motion. The high spatial and temporal resolution and higher signal-to-noise ratio of cine MRI enabled optical flow analysis to visualize regional differences between five lung segments. It also differentiated between chest and diaphragm breathing patterns in volunteers. In the future, this non-invasive method could be applied to assess and follow lung diseases, such as interstitial pneumonia or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
