ABSTRACT
This study was designed to assess coronary microvascular obstruction (MVO) in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) by cardiac magnetic resonance T2-weighted short tau inversion recovery (T2-STIR) image and layer-specific analysis of 2-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography combined with low-dose dobutamine stress echocardiography (LDDSE-LS2D-STE). 32 patients were enrolled to perform cardiac magnetic resonance and echocardiography 5-7 days after primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Infarcted myocardium was categorized into MVO+ group and MVO- group by late gadolinium enhancement as gold standard. At T2-weighted image, the area of hyper-intense region and hypo-intense core inside were marked as A1, A2 and A2/A1 > 0 represented MVO. Strain parameters were composed of longitudinal strain (LS), circumferential strain and radial strain at rest and dobutamine stress. There were 94 MVO+ segments, 136 MVO- segments according to gold standard. 96 segments had hypo-intense core at T2-STIR image. The sensitivity and specificity of T2-STIR in detecting MVO were 91.49 and 92.65%. Endocardial LS was superior to other parameters, and stress endocardial LS was higher than that of resting endocardial LS (sensitivity 77.11% vs 72.29%, specificity 93.28% vs 83.19%, AUC 0.87 vs 0.82, P < 0.05). The combination of T2-STIR and stress endocardial LS in parallel test could improve sensitivity significantly (98.05% vs 91.49%). T2-STIR has higher diagnostic value in detecting MVO with some limitations. However, LDDSE-LS2D-STE with cost-effective and handling may be a good alternative to T2-STIR. It provides additional and reliable diagnostic tools to identify MVO in STEMI patients after reperfusion.
