ABSTRACT
Establishing a patient-specific and non-invasive technique to derive blood flow as well as coronary structural information from one single cardiac CT imaging modality. 336 patients with chest pain or ST segment depression on electrocardiogram were retrospectively enrolled. All patients underwent adenosine-stressed dynamic CT myocardial perfusion imaging (CT-MPI) and coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) in sequence. Relationship between myocardial mass (M) and blood flow (Q), defined as log(Q) = b · log(M) + log(Q0), was explored based on the general allometric scaling law. We used 267 patients to obtain the regression results and found strong linear relationship between M (gram) and Q (mL/min) (b = 0.786, log(Q0) = 0.546, r = 0.704; p < 0.001). We Also found this correlation was applicable for patients with either normal or abnormal myocardial perfusion (p < 0.001). Datasets from the other 69 patients were used to validate this M-Q correlation and found the patient-specific blood flow could be accurately estimated from CCTA compared to that measured from CT-MPI (146.480 ± 39.607 vs 137.967 ± 36.227, r = 0.816, and 146.480 ± 39.607 vs 137.967 ± 36.227, r = 0.817, for the left ventricle region and LAD-subtended region, respectively, all unit in mL/min). In conclusion, we established a technique to provide general and patient-specific myocardial mass-blood flow correlation obeyed to allometric scaling law. Blood flow information could be directly derived from structural information acquired from CCTA.
