Comparison between Echocardiography and Cardiac Cine-MRI : Left Ventricular Volume and Cardiac Output

Abstract
|
|
|
The purpose of this study is to determine the utility of cardiac cine-MRI in the measurement of left ventricular volume and cardiac output. The results of cardiac cine-MRI were compared with those obtained by 2-dimensional echocardiography in 19
normal
pediatric subjects.
@ES The results are as follows:
@EN 1) The mean values of the parameters(end-diastolic volume. end-systolic volume, ejection fraction. Stroke volume, stroke index, cardiac output. And cardiac index) which were calculated by cardiac cine-MRI, demonstrated excellent agreement
with
the
results of 2-dimensional echocardiography(p>0.05).
2) Significant linear correlation was made when each parameter was compared between 2-dimensional echocardiography and cardiac cine-MRI(p<0.05).
3) End-diastolic and end-systolic volume which were estimated by 2-dimensional echocardiography and cardiac cine-MRI, were significantly increased according to increasing age of body weight(p<0.05).
The results of the study indicate that cardiac cine-MRI is likely to become a useful diagnostic modality to evaluate anatomic abnormalities in congenital and acquired cardiac diseases and to measure left ventricular volume and cardiac functions.
