Advanced Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Assessment of Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease: ADVOCATE-CMR
Sponsor: Amsterdam UMC, location VUmc
Summary
Stress perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is an established non-invasive imaging test for detection of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). Fully automated quantitative perfusion CMR (QP CMR) is a new technical advancement, which offers measurement of myocardial blood flow in CMR. Additionally, recent innovations have introduced various contrast-agent-free methods for CAD assessment, such as stress T1 mapping reactivity (∆T1) and oxygen-sensitive CMR (OS CMR). These methods might eliminate the necessity for contrast administration in clinical practice, simplifying, reducing time, invasiveness and costs in evaluating patients with suspected obstructive CAD. The ADVOCATE-CMR study aims to validate QP CMR, ∆T1 and OS CMR imaging against invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR) for detection of obstructive CAD. The study also aims to head-to-head compare the diagnostic accuracy of these CMR techniques with the conventional visual assessment of stress perfusion CMR and to correlate them to short- and long-term clinical outcomes.
