Cardiac imaging with computed tomography and magnetic resonance in the adult

Cardiac imaging with computed tomography and magnetic resonance in the adult
Literature review current through: Jan 2024.
This topic last updated: Jul 13, 2022.

INTRODUCTION — Cardiac computed tomography (CT) and cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging have emerged as options for noninvasive evaluation of the heart in clinical practice. Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) represents a widely available and well-tolerated examination which visualizes the presence and extent of coronary artery disease (CAD) noninvasively both in the acute and nonacute setting. CMR with morphologic and functional assessment is used to diagnose both ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathy, myocarditis, valvular, and pericardial disease. Both cardiac CT and CMR are tomographic imaging technologies.

The clinical use of CCTA and CMR are described here, including imaging protocols, diagnostic findings, and subsequent management recommendations, as well as risk benefit considerations. Other related topics on cardiac imaging and their clinical use are:

CARDIAC CT — Cardiac CT is most often performed as contrast-enhanced coronary CT angiography (CCTA) to evaluate for the presence and extent of CAD. Because of the technical improvements in CT scanner technology, the examination is available at most medical centers, but may not be available at smaller or geographically remote community practice settings.

Coronary CT angiography (CCTA)

Patient selection for CCTA — CCTA is used to detect obstructive CAD in patients with stable angina as well as in patients with acute coronary syndrome.

Stable angina

Detection of obstructive CAD — Among available noninvasive tests, CCTA has the highest diagnostic accuracy for the detection of obstructive CAD defined as >50 percent luminal narrowing in major epicardial vessels as detected by invasive coronary angiography. Especially because of its high sensitivity and corresponding low rate of false negatives, CCTA is a test best suited to identify patients at low risk for future major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). The ideal patient for CCTA would have an intermediate pretest probability (10 to 90 percent) for significant CAD (as defined by the Diamond-Forrester score) in whom diagnostic assessment is warranted, but one in whom exclusion of significant CAD is the primary goal of testing.

Pretest probability instruments in use in contemporary practice, including the Diamond-Forrester score, dramatically overestimate (eg, three- to fivefold) the true prevalence of significant CAD in some populations and may lead to CCTA overutilization. Better clinical risk stratification tools under development aim to improve appropriate utilization of CCTA. Choice of CCTA among alternative tests (eg, stress testing or myocardial single photon emission computed tomography) in this setting is discussed elsewhere. (See "Selecting the optimal cardiac stress test".)

Prognostic value of CAD — CCTA not only detects the presence and extent of stenosis but also coronary plaque. Overall, the presence and extent of both aspects of CAD are strong predictors for future MACE [1-9]. For example, the absence of any CAD on CCTA carries a warranty period of up to five years for a very low risk (<0.2 percent) of MACE, while the presence of nonobstructive and obstructive CAD carries a three- and sixfold increased risk of future MACE over five years compared with those without these findings. Thus, the test findings can be used to guide subsequent management by diagnosing obstructive CAD for potential revascularization procedures and by assessing prognosis for antiatherosclerotic medical therapy.

Acute coronary syndrome — In patients with intermediate or low probability of acute coronary syndrome, early CCTA is an effective test to exclude the diagnosis [10,11]. Absence of CAD on CCTA is associated with an at least two-year period with very low risk of MACE [12]. The choice of CCTA among other management alternatives (eg, stress testing and coronary artery catheterization) in this setting is discussed elsewhere. (See "Noninvasive testing and imaging for diagnosis in patients at low to intermediate risk for acute coronary syndrome" and "Selecting the optimal cardiac stress test".)

CCTA imaging protocol — CT scanners with high spatial and temporal resolution are necessary for image acquisition, as imaging is tailored to accurately visualize the presence and extent of CAD, primarily by minimizing motion artifacts. A 64-slice multidetector technology is considered a minimum standard, with more advanced CT scanners (eg, 128-slice, 256-slice, dual source) capable of rendering better images at lower radiation exposure. Image acquisition is synchronized to the electrocardiogram (ECG). A bolus dose of iodinated contrast (typically 50 to 120 mL) is administered intravenously. Nitroglycerin, sublingual tablet or spray, is given immediately prior to the examination to dilate the coronary arteries and facilitate assessment of luminal narrowing. Typically, a short-acting oral or intravenous beta blocker is administered to slow the heart rate to less than 60 to 70 beats per minute.

Contraindications and adverse effects — The most common contraindication to CCTA is severe renal insufficiency (ie, estimated glomerular filtration rate test <30 mL/min/1.73 m2) or a history of allergy to iodinated contrast, (eg, anaphylaxis). In this situation, alternative tests (eg, stress testing) or preventive measures to minimize the potential adverse effects of iodinated contrast (eg, premedication for contrast allergy, hydration for renal insufficiency) are available. (See "Patient evaluation prior to oral or iodinated intravenous contrast for computed tomography".)

Patients must be cooperative and able to hold their breath for 5 to 10 seconds. Cardiac tachyarrhythmias (eg, atrial fibrillation) and excessive motion due to inability to perform a breath-hold can lead to nondiagnostic CCTA examinations, especially with basic 64-slice technology [13,14].

With the development of dose reduction technology and increased spatial and temporal resolution, the newest CT scanner technology enables high-quality diagnostic CCTA acquisition at median effective radiation doses between 2 and 5 mSv, comparable with one to two years of background radiation (which is about 3.1 mSv at sea level) [15,16]. However, the dose can be significantly higher (up to 12 or 15 mSv) using first generation 64-slice CT scanners or in individual patients (eg, obese, high heart rate).

CCTA diagnostic performance and results reporting

Diagnostic accuracy — CCTA detects luminal narrowing of ≥50 percent diameter with high sensitivity and negative predictive value.

The diagnostic accuracy of CCTA for detection of ≥50 percent diameter stenoses using invasive coronary angiography as the reference standard has been measured in a number of multicenter studies using scanners from multiple vendors [1-3]. CCTA consistently demonstrates a patient-based sensitivity of 95 to 99 percent. However, the specificity of CCTA is variable, ranging from 64 to 90 percent, and is subject to image quality and underlying artifacts from patient factors. For example, in patients with high calcium scores (ie, >400 Agatston units), a specificity as low as 53 percent has been reported [1].

CAD-RADS categories — A standardized radiology reporting system for CCTA (CAD-reporting and data system [CAD-RADS]) has been introduced and endorsed by professional societies [17].

CAD-RADS describes CCTA findings and classifies them according to management recommendations in patients with either acute (table 1) or stable (table 2) chest pain.

CAD-RADS categories are:

CAD-RADS 0 – 0 percent stenosis

CAD-RADS 1 – 1 to 24 percent stenosis

CAD-RADS 2 – 25 to 49 percent stenosis

CAD-RADS 3 – 50 to 69 percent stenosis

CAD-RADS 4A – 70 to 99 percent stenosis

CAD-RADS 4B – >50 percent left main or ≥70 percent three-vessel stenosis

CAD-RADS 5 – 100 percent stenosis/occlusion

CAD-RADS N – Nondiagnostic examination

Modifiers to each category are sometimes added and include V (vulnerable high-risk plaque), S (stent), or G (graft).

Other cardiac CT applications

Left ventricular function and myocardial perfusion — Cardiac CT can be performed in the same sitting as CCTA to assess left ventricular morphology, function, and myocardial perfusion, potentially increasing specificity of the examination for CAD [18,19]. CT perfusion requires pharmacological stress and imaging both at rest and with stress. Initial results are promising, but with the availability of alternative tests this examination is limited in use and availability.

Fractional flow reserve — CT-based computational fluid dynamics modeling and simulation of fractional flow reserve (FFR) is an emerging technology intended to improve the specificity for CCTA [20,21]. The CT images are segmented to delineate coronary lumen and myocardium, and mathematical models are applied to simulate pharmacological stress across a stenotic segment. This method demonstrates reasonable agreement with FFR measurements derived from coronary artery angiography [22]. FFR-CT is not universally available and is performed only by sending the CT image dataset to a commercial entity that provides the advanced data analysis.

CARDIOVASCULAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING — CMR is the method of choice for assessment of functional and tissue properties of the heart, including atrial and ventricular anatomy and motion, valvular function, myocardial tissue composition, and pericardial disease. The necessary technology and imaging expertise for CMR are available at major medical centers but are subject to geography and associated clinical expertise. (See "Clinical utility of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging".)

Patient selection for CMR — Patients evaluated with CMR typically have advanced and more complex diseases, and are usually referred after initial testing with first-line technology (ie, transthoracic echocardiography).

CMR imaging protocol — The technical requirements, indications [23,24], imaging protocols [25], and reporting of CMR are increasingly standardized and often tailored to each clinical indication.

Generally, a 1.5 Tesla (T) or 3 T CMR unit capable of ECG-gated imaging is utilized. Standard four-chamber and short-axis balanced steady-state free precession cine images are usually acquired from the base of the heart to the apex to assess ventricular wall thickness, mass, and regional/global systolic function. Parametric mapping with native (noncontrast) T1, T2, T2*, and/or postgadolinium extracellular volume fraction imaging are commonly performed [26] in the assessment for cardiomyopathies (eg, amyloid, iron deposition). Phase contrast flow imaging is performed orthogonal to the main pulmonary artery and aorta to directly measure right and left ventricular forward flow, respectively. Flow can also be measured directly across the mitral or aortic valve or through any area of interest (eg, atrial septal defect).

Gadolinium contrast is given if assessment of scar or fibrosis is indicated. Pharmacologic stress perfusion imaging, if indicated and locally available, is performed using either inotropic (eg, dobutamine) or vasodilator (eg, regadenoson, adenosine, or dipyridamole) agents.

Contraindications and adverse events — Common contraindications to CMR are metallic or electrical implants, devices, or foreign bodies. Most contemporary cardiac implantable electronic devices are MRI-safe (see "Patient evaluation for metallic or electrical implants, devices, or foreign bodies before magnetic resonance imaging"). Gadolinium is usually not administered to patients with severe renal insufficiency (ie, estimated glomerular filtration rate <30 mL/min/1.73 m2). (See "Patient evaluation before gadolinium contrast administration for magnetic resonance imaging".)

The table time for image acquisition can be long, and the patient must be able to lie flat in the scanner for 40 to 60 minutes. Irregular heart or breathing rhythms may result in lower image quality and longer scan times.

CMR use by clinical indication — CMR enables further evaluation of the myocardium for ischemia (eg, perfusion, viability, scar), inflammation, or infiltration (eg, deposition with iron, amyloid, etc). In addition, CMR is used to further evaluate suspected valvular dysfunction (eg, stenosis, regurgitation), the pericardium, suspected cardiac tumors, and coronary artery anatomy.

Myocardial disease

Stress testing for myocardial ischemia — In patients with suspected CAD, CMR is performed both at rest and after pharmacologic stress, to evaluate for ischemia (dobutamine/wall motion or vasodilator/perfusion deficit).The cine motion of the ventricular walls during systole and diastole is visualized and the chambers can be assessed volumetrically. Vasodilator perfusion CMR is performed with first-pass of gadolinium contrast. Stress testing with CMR is described elsewhere. (See "Clinical utility of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging", section on 'Ischemic heart disease' and "Noninvasive testing and imaging for diagnosis in patients at low to intermediate risk for acute coronary syndrome", section on 'Stress CMR'.)

Nonischemic cardiomyopathy — CMR is the preferred imaging examination as a follow-up to echocardiography in patients with suspected nonischemic cardiomyopathy (eg, infiltrative disease, iron deposition, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, amyloid, etc) to diagnose the underlying etiology and to assess myocardial viability and function. Native T1, T2, T2*, and extracellular volume fraction assessment is often used. In these patients, ischemic cardiomyopathy has already been excluded. Evaluation of cardiomyopathy with CMR is described elsewhere. (See "Clinical utility of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging", section on 'Cardiomyopathy' and "Tests to evaluate left ventricular systolic function", section on 'Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging' and "Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: Clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and evaluation", section on 'Cardiovascular magnetic resonance'.)

Myocarditis — Acute myocarditis is a diagnostic consideration in patients with chest pain or heart failure symptoms, elevated troponin level and/or non-coronary ventricular dysfunction on echocardiography, and no clear evidence of underlying cardiac ischemia. CMR often provides supportive evidence of myocarditis when endomyocardial biopsy is not performed. CMR acquisition and reporting for suspected myocarditis is described elsewhere. (See "Clinical manifestations and diagnosis of myocarditis in adults" and "Clinical manifestations and diagnosis of myocarditis in adults", section on 'Cardiovascular magnetic resonance'.)

Valvular disease — Following cardiac echocardiography, CMR enables detailed assessment of valvular motion and enables visualization of flow dynamics for turbulence and quantification of regurgitation. Use of CMR for suspected valvular disease is described elsewhere. (See "Clinical utility of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging", section on 'Valvular heart disease'.)

Pericardial disease — CMR enables direct visualization of the pericardium and is used in suspected underlying pericardial disease such as recurrent pericarditis, thickening/constrictive pericarditis, tumor invasion, and congenital absence of the pericardium. For CMR tagging, spatial modulation of magnetization methods are often used. (See "Clinical utility of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging", section on 'Pericardial disease'.)

Cardiac tumor — CMR is the preferred examination for evaluating suspected cardiac tumors or thrombi detected on echocardiography. CMR enables better characterization of the tissue composition and perfusion, as well as improved detection of intracardiac thrombi. Use of CMR in evaluation of cardiac tumors is described elsewhere. (See "Cardiac tumors".)

Coronary artery disease — Noncontrast CMR can be used to identify the coronary artery origins and thus avoid the radiation and iodinated contrast associated with CCTA. In addition, no beta blockers are used for coronary artery CMR. However, if CMR is not available or not feasible (eg, contraindications to CMR), CCTA can also be used, as it yields higher-resolution images and comparable diagnostic performance.

Coronary stenosis — Because of limitations in study duration, spatial resolution, and sensitivity to patient motion, CMR is less practical than CCTA for evaluating the coronary arteries. Coronary artery CMR is less accurate than CT in diagnosing clinically significant (≥50 percent) stenoses of the coronary arteries [27,28].

Congenital artery anomalies — The risk of sudden cardiac arrest is increased in patients with congenital coronary anomalies when the proximal segment of an anomalous coronary artery courses between the aorta and the pulmonary artery. In this setting, the anomalous vessel may become compressed, leading to myocardial ischemia and possibly fatal arrhythmias. This is most likely to occur during periods of high cardiac output, as in young athletes and military recruits. (See "Congenital and pediatric coronary artery abnormalities" and "Athletes: Overview of sudden cardiac death risk and sport participation".)

Whether an anomalous coronary artery follows such a malignant "interarterial course" or whether it courses in a benign fashion in front of the pulmonary artery or behind the aorta can be determined by CCTA [29,30] and by coronary artery CMR with very high accuracy and often much greater ease than by invasive, selective coronary angiography.

Coronary artery aneurysms/Kawasaki disease — The vast majority of acquired coronary artery aneurysms are due to Kawasaki disease, a generalized vasculitis occurring in infants and young children. Coronary artery aneurysms occur in 20 to 25 percent of patients with Kawasaki disease who are treated with aspirin. In two comparative studies with a total of 19 children, adolescents, and young adults with coronary aneurysms and/or ectasia, CMR was as accurate as conventional invasive coronary angiography in identifying and defining (aneurysm diameter and length) the lesions [31,32]. (See "Cardiovascular sequelae of Kawasaki disease: Clinical features and evaluation".)

Aorta aneurysm, dissection, coarctation — Gadolinium contrast and noncontrast CMR angiography are commonly used for the identification, characterization, and monitoring of known or suspected aortic aneurysm or dissection, as well as localization of aortic coarctation. An advantage of CMR versus cardiac CT is the lack of ionizing radiation or potentially harmful iodinated contrast. (See "Clinical features and diagnosis of acute aortic dissection", section on 'Cardiovascular imaging' and "Clinical manifestations and diagnosis of thoracic aortic aneurysm" and "Clinical manifestations and diagnosis of thoracic aortic aneurysm", section on 'Imaging diagnosis' and "Overview of abdominal aortic aneurysm" and "Overview of abdominal aortic aneurysm", section on 'Imaging' and "Screening for abdominal aortic aneurysm".)

SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Cardiac computed tomography (CT) is most often performed as contrast-enhanced coronary CT angiography (CCTA) to evaluate for the presence and extent of coronary artery disease (CAD). Because of the technical improvements in CT scanner technology, the examination is available at most major medical centers but may not be available at smaller or geographically remote community practice settings. (See 'Cardiac CT' above.)

Because of its high sensitivity and corresponding low rate of false negatives, CCTA is a test best suited to classify patients with suspected CAD as low risk and to exclude significant disease. CCTA noninvasively detects the presence and extent of CAD, including plaque and stenosis, and is a strong predictor for future major adverse cardiovascular events. (See 'Coronary CT angiography (CCTA)' above.)

A 64-slice multidetector technology is considered a minimum standard, with more advanced CT scanners (eg, 128-, 256-, 320-slice, dual source) capable of rendering better images at lower radiation exposure. Image acquisition is synchronized to the ECG. A bolus dose of iodinated contrast (typically 50 to 120 cc) is administered intravenously. Nitroglycerin, sublingual tablet or spray, is given immediately prior to the examination to dilate the coronary arteries and, often, an oral or intravenous beta blocker is administered to slow the heart rate to less than 60 to 70 beats per minute. (See 'CCTA imaging protocol' above.)

A standardized radiology reporting system for CCTA (CAD-reporting and data system [CAD-RADS]) describes CCTA findings and classifies them according to management recommendations in patients with either acute (table 1) or stable (table 2) chest pain. (See 'CAD-RADS categories' above.)

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is the method of choice for assessment of functional and tissue properties of the heart, including atrial and ventricular anatomy and regional/global systolic function, myocardial tissue composition, valvular disease, pericardial disease, intracardiac masses, and aortic disease. The necessary technology and imaging expertise for CMR are available at most medical centers but are subject to geography and associated clinical expertise. (See 'Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging' above.)

Patients evaluated with CMR typically have advanced and more complex diseases, and are referred after initial testing with first-line technology (ie, transthoracic echocardiography). The technical requirements, imaging protocols, and reporting of CMR are becoming standardized, but remain tailored to each clinical indication. (See 'Patient selection for CMR' above and 'CMR imaging protocol' above.)

CMR enables further evaluation of the myocardium for ischemia (eg, perfusion, viability, scar), inflammation, or infiltration (eg, deposition with iron, amyloid, etc). In addition, CMR is used to further evaluate suspected valvular dysfunction (eg, regurgitation), pericardial disease, suspected cardiac tumors, anomalous coronary disease, and aortic disease. (See 'CMR use by clinical indication' above.)
