ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To demonstrate the feasibility of a rapid 3D stack-of-spirals (3D-SoS) imaging acquisition for hyperpolarized 129 Xe ventilation mapping in healthy pediatric participants and pediatric cystic fibrosis (CF) participants, in comparison to conventional Cartesian multislice (2D) gradient-recalled echo (GRE) imaging.METHODS:
The 2D-GRE and 3D-SoS acquisitions were performed in 13 pediatric participants (5 healthy, 8 CF) during separate breath-holds. Images from both sequences were compared on the basis of ventilation defect percent (VDP) and other measures of image similarity. The nadir of transient oxygen saturation (SpO2 ) decline due to xenon breath-holding was measured with pulse oximetry, and expressed as a percent change relative to baseline.RESULTS:
129 Xe ventilation images were acquired in a breath-hold of 1.2-1.8 s with the 3D-SoS sequence, compared to 6.2-8.8 s for 2D-GRE. Mean ± SD VDP measures for 2D-GRE and 3D-SoS sequences were 5.02 ± 1.06% and 5.28 ± 1.08% in healthy participants, and 18.05 ± 8.26% and 18.75 ± 6.74% in CF participants, respectively. Across all participants, the intraclass correlation coefficient of VDP measures for both sequences was 0.98 (95% confidence interval 0.94-0.99). The percent change in SpO2 was reduced to -2.1 ± 2.7% from -5.2 ± 3.5% with the shorter 3D-SoS breath-hold.CONCLUSION:
Hyperpolarized 129 Xe ventilation imaging with 3D-SoS yielded images approximately five times faster than conventional 2D-GRE, reducing SpO2 desaturation and improving tolerability of the xenon administration. Analysis of VDP and other measures of image similarity demonstrate excellent agreement between images obtained with both sequences. 3D-SoS holds significant potential for reducing the acquisition time of hyperpolarized 129 Xe MRI, and/or increasing spatial resolution while adhering to clinical breath-hold constraints.Palavras-chave
