Outline of Final Research Achievements

Electrocardiography can noninvasively identify the origins of premature ventricular contractions (PVCs). However, its accuracy is limited due to its low spatial resolution. This study aimed to develop a novel PVC mapping method to predict PVC origins in whole ventricles by merging a magnetocardiography (MCG) image with a cardiac computed tomography (CT) image. Estimated origins by MCG-CT imaging matched the origins determined during the procedure in 94% (17 of 18) of patients. The diagnostic accuracy of noninvasive MCG-CT mapping was high enough to allow clinical use to predict the site of PVC origins in the whole ventricles.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

一部の心室期外収縮においてはカテーテルアブレーション治療による根治率が低いことが知られている。不整脈発生源が心臓の外側にあったり、心室壁の深層に存在していると、通電エネルギーが不整脈源に届かずに、通電効果が及ばないためである。我々が開発した3次元マッピングを用いることで、これら難治性不整脈を術前に診断することが可能となる。患者に予測される成功率、危険性を術前に詳しく情報提供することが可能となり、さらに治療の方法を前もって策定することで、治療の効果、効率、安全性を向上させることができると考えられる。
