Abstract Funding Acknowledgements The study was supported by Center for Cardiological Innovation Background Myocardial scar burden (focal fibrosis) is associated with poor response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), and should preferably be detected prior to device implantation. Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is considered reference standard for scar detection, but is not available in renal failure. Diffuse fibrosis is assessed by T1 mapping CMR with or without calculation of extracellular volume fraction (ECV). The method is vulnerable to partial volume effects, thus subendocardial tissue is most often not included in mapping analyses. Whether the contrast-free native T1mapping could replace LGE in the preoperative evaluation of patients referred for CRT is unknown. Purpose To investigate if native T1 mapping and calculation of ECV can adequately detect scar in patients referred for CRT. Methods Scar was quantified as percentage segmental LGE in 45 patients (age 65 ± 10 years, 71% male, QRS-width 165 ± 17ms) referred for CRT. In total 720 segments were analyzed, and LGE≥50% was considered transmural scar. T1-mapping before and after contrast agent injection was performed in all patients. ECV was calculated based on the ratio between tissue T1 relaxation change and blood T1 relaxation change after contrast agent injection, corrected for the haematocrit level. The agreement between native T1/ECV and scar was evaluated with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves with calculation of area under the curve (AUC) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Results LGE was present in 255 segments, 465 segments were without LGE. Average native T1 in segments with LGE was 1028 ± 88 ms, and 1040 ± 60 ms in segments without LGE (p = 0.16). The corresponding numbers for ECV were 38.7 ± 10.9% and 30.0 ± 4.7%, p < 0.001. Native T1 showed poor agreement to scar independent of scar size (AUC = 0.532, 95% CI 0.485-0.578 for scars of all sizes, and AUC = 0.572, 95% CI 0.495-0.650 for transmural scars). ECV, on the other hand, showed reasonable agreement with scar of all sizes (AUC = 0.777, 95% CI 0.739-0.815), and good agreement with transmural scars (AUC = 0.856, 95% CI 0.811-0.902). (Figure) Conclusion The contrast-free CMR technique T1 mapping does not adequately detect scars in patients referred for CRT. Adding post contrast T1 measurements and calculating ECV improves accuracy, especially for transmural scars. Future studies should investigate if diffuse fibrosis could be predictive of CRT response.

Abstract Background The Catheter Ablation versus Standard Conventional Therapy in Patients with Left Ventricular Dysfunction and Atrial Fibrillation (CASTLE-AF) trial has shown that the catheter ablation (CA) for atrial fibrillation (AF) significantly reduced the risk of death and hospitalization for heart failure in patients with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (NIDCM) and AF (N Engl J Med 2018; 378:417–27). In addition, the Catheter Ablation Versus Medical Rate Control in Atrial Fibrillation and Systolic Dysfunction (CAMERA-MRI) study demonstrated that the absence of myocardial fibrosis on late gadolinium enhanced (LGE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is associated with improvement of left ventricular systolic function after CA in NIDCM patients with AF (J Am Coll Cardiol 2017; 70:1949–61). Extracellular volume fraction (ECV) by T1 mapping has emerges as a non-invasive mean to quantify diffuse myocardial fibrosis. Purpose The aim of this study was to compare the predictive value of LGE-MRI and ECV by T1 mapping for the prediction of improvement of LVEF after CA in NIDCM patients. Methods A total of twenty-eight patients with NIDCM and AF (age: 67±10 years; 25 (89%) male; LVEF: 34.1±8.8%) were studied. Using a 1.5T MR scanner and 32 channel cardiac coils, cine MRI, LGE-MRI, pre- and post- T1 mapping images of LV wall at mid-ventricular level (modified Look-Locker inversion recovery sequence) were acquired. Myocardial fibrosis on LGE was defined as area with >5SD signal intensity of normal myocardium. ECV from six segments of mid ventricular level were averaged for each patient. All patients underwent CA for AF, and the improvement of LVEF before and after CA were evaluated by echocardiography. Results All patients restored sinus rhythm after CA at the time of echocardiography. The mean LVEF was 34.1±8.8% before CA and 49.1±12.0% after CA (p<0.001), resulting an improvement of 15.0±11.8%. Significant correlation was found between improvements in LVEF and amount of fibrosis on LGE-MRI (r=−0.40, p=0.034), improvement of LVEF and ECV (r=−0.55, p=0.008). In the ROC analysis, ECV had a higher discriminative ability for the improvement of LVEF after CA compared with amount of fibrosis on LGE-MRI (AUC 0.885 vs 0.650) (Figure). Conclusions In NIDCM patients with AF, ECV by T1 mapping had better predictive ability for improvement of LVEF after CA in comparison to LGE-MRI.

Background: To investigate the difference in myocardial extracellular volume fraction (ECV) by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) T1 mapping between patients with and without type 2 diabetes (T2D), and the effect of ECV and T2D on cardiovascular (CV) outcomes.Methods: All patients aged > 18 years with known or suspected coronary artery disease who underwent CMR for assessment of myocardial ischemia or myocardial viability at the Department of Cardiology of the Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand from September 2017 to December 2018 were screened for inclusion eligibility. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), late gadolinium enhancement, and T1 mapping were performed. ECV values were derived from myocardial native T1 and contrast-enhanced T1 values that were obtained using modified Look-Locker inversion recovery at the septum of the mid-cavity short-axis map. Demographic data, clinical characteristics, and CV outcomes were collected by retrospective chart review. Composite CV outcomes included CV death, acute coronary syndrome, heart failure hospitalization, or ventricular tachycardia (VT)/ventricular fibrillation.Results: A total of 739 subjects (mean age: 69.5 ± 14.0 years, 49.3% men) were included. Of those, 188 subjects had T2D (25.4%). ECV was significantly higher in T2D than in non-T2D (30.0 ± 5.9% vs. 28.8 ± 4.7%, p = 0.004). During the mean follow-up duration of 26.2 ± 8.5 months, 43 patients (5.8%) had a clinical composite outcome, as follows: three CV death (0.4%), seven acute coronary syndrome (0.9%), 33 heart failure hospitalization (4.5%), and one VT (0.1%). T2D, low LVEF, and high ECV were all identified as independent predictors of CV events. Patients with T2D and high ECV had the highest risk of CV events.Conclusion: Among patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease, patients with T2D had a higher ECV. T2D and high ECV were both found to be independent risk factors for adverse CV outcomes.
