| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
<Purpose> To evaluate the value of coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR) measured by phase-contrast cine MRI (PC-MRI) for detecting impaired myocardial perfusion reserve (MPR) in patients, using 15O-labeled water positron emission tomography (PET) as a reference. <Methods> PC-MRI and PET flow measurements were performed in 13 patients. CFVR in RCA was measured with 3T PC-MRI in 13 patients and was compared with thje MPR in the RCA territory determined by PET. <Results> CFVR in RCA was successfully determined with PC-MRI in all subjects. The CFVR in patients with impaired MPR (<2.0) was significantly lower than that with preserved MPR (>2.0) (1.3±0.3 vs 2.2±1.2, p=0.03). Using a CFVR threshold of 1.5, the sensitivity and specificity for detecting impaired MPR was 80% (4/5) and 100% (8/8), respectively. <Conclusion> CFVR determined by PC-MRI can provide noninvasive detection of impaired myocardial perfusion reserve, without radiation exposure and contrast media.
