超低剂量心脏CT扫描对冠状动脉狭窄分级和量化的价值

Value of Ultra-low Dose Coronary CT Angiography for Classification and Quantification of Coronary Stenosis

  • 摘要: 目的:在冠状动脉CT成像(CCTA)中,以100 kV扫描为参照,评估70 kV扫描对冠状动脉狭窄程度分级和量化的一致性。方法:选取70名临床怀疑或已知冠心病且适合行CCTA检查的患者,使用256排宽探测器CT,分别用70 kV和100kV管电压进行单心动周期CCTA检查。比较两组扫描的有效辐射剂量(ED)及图像信噪比(SNR)。对冠状动脉的9个节段进行狭窄程度分析。将狭窄程度分为正常(0%)、轻度(1%~49%)、中度(50%~69%)和重度(70%~100%)四个等级。记录狭窄程度一致的冠状动脉节段数目。使用Bland-Altman分析比较冠脉狭窄程度的一致性。结果:70 kV扫描的有效辐射剂量显著低于100 kV扫描的,分别为(0.26±0.08)mSv和(1.07±0.05)mSv (P<0.01),信噪比显著低于100 kV扫描,分别为16.53±5.87和18.19±6.07(P<0.05)。在630个冠状动脉节段中,608个(96.5%)分级一致。Bland-Altman分析显示两组扫描方法评估狭窄程度差异性的95%可信区间约在15%~30%之间。结论:70kV冠状动脉CTA成像可以大幅度降低辐射剂量,对冠脉狭窄程度的分级与常规100kV扫描基本一致。但是对冠状动脉的精确量化测量与常规扫描有一定的差异性。

     

    Abstract: Objective: To investigate the agreement between 70 kV and 100 kV scan for classification and quantification of coronary artery stenosis, on wide-detector coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) examination. Methods: 70 patients of suspected or known coronary artery disease were included, who were suitable for CCTA. Single heartbeat CCTA was performed on 256-row wide-detector CT by using 70 kV and 100 kV tube voltage, respectively. Effective radiation dose and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) were compared between these two groups. Nine coronary segments were evaluated, in which the stenosis degree was categorized as:normal (0%), mild (1%~49%), moderate (50%~69%) and severe (70%~100%). We recorded the number of consistent stenosis category between 70 kV and 100 kV scan. Bland-Altman analysis was used to evaluate coronary stenosis between 70 kV and 100 kV scan. Result: Effective radiation dose of 70 kV scan was significantly lower than that of 100 kV, which were (0.26±0.08) mSv and (1.07±0.05) mSv (P<0.01), respectively. SNR of 70 kV scan was significantly lower either, which were 16.53±5.87 and 18.19±6.07 (P<0.05), respectively. Stenosis degree of 630 coronary segments were evaluated, in which 608 (96.5%) were consistent between 70 kV and 100 kV scan. Bland-Altman analysis revealed a 95% confidence interval (CI) between 15% and 30% for coronary stenosis between the two groups. Conclusion: CCTA of 70 kV tube voltage significantly reduces radiation dose, while showing optimal consistent categorization for coronary stenosis to 100 kV scan. However, variability exists between 70 kV and 100 kV scans for precise quantification of coronary stenosis.
