Myocardial Perfusion MRI

The object of this study is to compare four different dosages of Gadavist 1.0 in cardiac Magnetic Resonance Tomography (MRT) imaging with the imaging results of a cardiac SPECT examination in terms of diagnostic quality.

For this purpose Gadavist dosages of 0.01 mmol/kg, 0.025 mmol/kg, 0.05 mmol/kg or 0.1mmol/kg body weight are administered. A study participant receives the respective dose twice i.e. at rest and at stress using Adenosine (which puts circulation into a state of stress similar to that of physical exercise). The time between both injections is 10-15 min.

The total imaging time is about 45 min.

  50. Percentage Agreement Between Gadobutrol Perfusion MRI Diagnosis (Blinded Reading) and the Presence/Absence of Delayed Enhancement (DE) at the Time Point of Highest Agreement Between SPECT (Central Reading) and DE Based on Myocardial Segments

    Time frame: Immediately within approximately 5 seconds after Gadobutrol bolus administration

    Delayed enhancement: accumulation of Gadobutrol in infarcted tissue and visualized as Gadobutrol enhanced regions. Rest and stress perfusion MR and DE images were evaluated by 3 blinded readers for absence/presence of "scar" on perfusion MR and presence/absence of DE on MR for 16 myocardial segments (defined according to AHA).

  51. Percentage Agreement Between Gadobutrol Perfusion MRI Diagnosis (Clinical Evaluation) and the Presence/Absence of Delayed Enhancement (DE) at the Time Point of Highest Agreement Between SPECT (Central Reading) and DE Based on Myocardial Segments

    Time frame: Immediately within approximately 5 seconds after Gadobutrol bolus administration

    Delayed enhancement: accumulation of Gadobutrol in infarcted tissue and visualized as Gadobutrol enhanced regions. Rest and stress perfusion MR and DE images were evaluated by the clinical investigator for absence/presence of "scar" on perfusion MR and presence/absence of DE on MR for 16 myocardial segments (defined according to AHA).

  52. Percentage Agreement Between Gadobutrol Perfusion MRI Diagnosis (Clinical Evaluation) and Presence/Absence of Delayed Enhancement (DE) at the Time Point of Highest Agreement Between SPECT (Central Reading) and DE Based on Myocardial Regions

    Time frame: Immediately within approximately 5 seconds after Gadobutrol bolus administration

    Delayed enhancement: accumulation of Gadobutrol in infarcted tissue and visualized as Gadobutrol enhanced regions. Rest and stress perfusion MR and DE images were evaluated by the clinical investigator for absence/presence of "scar" on perfusion MR and presence/absence of DE on MR for 3 myocardial regions representing the 3 coronary territories/arteries (LAD, LCX, RCA).

  53. Percentage of Segments With Artifacts on Delayed Enhancement Images (Blinded Reading)

    Time frame: Delayed enhancement was measured at 5, 10, 15, and 20 minutes after Gadobutrol bolus administration

    Delayed enhancement: accumulation of Gadobutrol in infarcted tissue and visualized as Gadobutrol enhanced regions.

  54. Percentage of Segments With Artifacts on Delayed Enhancement Images (Clinical Evaluation)

    Time frame: Delayed enhancement was measured at 5, 10, 15, and 20 minutes after Gadobutrol bolus administration

    Delayed enhancement: accumulation of Gadobutrol in infarcted tissue and visualized as Gadobutrol enhanced regions.

  55. Percentage of Participants With Deviation of MRI Procedure (Clinical Evaluation)

    Time frame: Immediately within approximately 5 seconds after Gadobutrol bolus administration
