摘要

PURPOSE: To assess a swallowing-compensated, three-dimensional (3D) diffusion-prepared segmented steady-state free precession (3D Nav-D-SSFP) technique for carotid wall MRI with 0.6-mm isotropic spatial resolution, and its utility for semiautomated carotid wall morphometry. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The carotid arteries of seven healthy volunteers (N=14) were imaged with 3D Nav-D-SSFP and black-blood T2-weighted (T2w) two-dimensional (2D) fast spin-echo (FSE). Carotid wall-lumen contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) was measured with both sequences. Measurement of carotid wall area (WA) and lumen area (LA) made in a semiautomated manner off of the 3D Nav-D-SSFP images were compared to those made manually. RESULTS: Adjusted for voxel volume and number of slices, a near six-fold improvement in CNR per unit time was achieved with 3D Nav-D-SSFP relative to 2D T2w FSE (P<0.001). Manual and semiautomated measurements of carotid WA and LA on the 3D Nav-D-SSFP images were highly correlated (intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC)=0.961 and 0.996, respectively; P<0.001). CONCLUSION: 3D Nav-D-SSFP is a time-efficient, swallowing-compensated, black-blood technique that lends itself for semiautomated measurements of carotid WA and LA that are in good agreement with manual measurements.
