預防腦栓塞是頸動(dòng)脈支架(CAS)的一個(gè)重要問(wèn)題。為此,日本Mie醫學(xué)研究生院神經(jīng)外科的HiroshiTanemura博士等人進(jìn)行了一項研究,研究結果于2012年11月20日在線(xiàn)發(fā)表在Stroke雜志上。研究結果發(fā)現:3DT1加權梯度回波(3DT1GRE)序列有助CAS相關(guān)腦栓塞的預測。
研究人員使用3DT1GRE圖像測量信號密度比值(SIR)和斑塊容積,并對CAS前的47個(gè)頸動(dòng)脈斑塊特性進(jìn)行量化分析。我們使用T1加權渦輪場(chǎng)回波序列獲得3DT1GRE圖像。研究人員也在CAS前后評估腦彌散加權圖像(DWI)以檢測腦血栓所致的缺血病灶(DWI病灶)。
研究結果發(fā)現:存在DWI病灶組(P組:n=26)相較沒(méi)有DWI病灶組(N組:n=21):SIR(2.17[四分位1.50–3.07]對比1.35[四分位1.08–1.97];P=0.010)和斑塊容積(456mm3[四分位256–696]對比301mm3[四分位:126–433];P=0.008)顯著(zhù)增高。根據多變量對數回歸分析,SIR(P=0.007)和斑塊容量(P=0.042)是CAS相關(guān)DWI病灶的獨立預測因素。而且,SIR(rs=0.42,P=0.005)和斑塊容量(rs=0.36,P=0.012)與DWI病灶數量正相關(guān)。根據受試者工作特性曲線(xiàn)分析發(fā)現:SIR和斑塊容量預測CAS相關(guān)DWI病灶的最佳切線(xiàn)值分別為1.80和373mm3。
該研究發(fā)現:使用3DT1GRE圖像對頸動(dòng)脈斑塊進(jìn)行量化分析,有利于預測CAS相關(guān)的腦栓塞。

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Preventing cerebral embolisms is a major concern with carotid artery stenting (CAS). This study evaluated 3-dimensional T1-weighted gradient echo (3D T1GRE) sequence to predict cerebral embolism related to CAS. METHODS: We performed quantitative analyses of the characteristics of 47 carotid plaques before CAS by measuring the signal intensity ratio (SIR) and plaque volume using 3D T1GRE images. We used T1-weighted turbo field echo sequence to obtain 3D T1GRE images. We also evaluated diffusion-weighted images (DWI) of the brain before and after CAS to detect ischemic lesions (DWI lesions) from cerebral emboli. RESULTS: SIR (2.17 [interquartile range 1.50-3.07] versus 1.35 [interquartile range 1.08-1.97]; P=0.010) and plaque volume (456 mm(3) [interquartile range 256-696] versus 301 mm(3) [interquartile range 126-433]; P=0.008) were significantly higher in the group of patients positive for DWI lesions (P-group: n=26) than DWI lesion-negative patients (N-group: n=21). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, SIR (P=0.007) and plaque volume (P=0.042) were independent predictors of DWI lesions with CAS. Furthermore, SIR (rs=0.42, P=0.005) and plaque volume (rs=0.36, P=0.012) were positively correlated with the number of DWI lesions. From analysis of a receiver-operating characteristic curve, the most reliable cutoff values of SIR and plaque volume to predict DWI lesions related to CAS were 1.80 and 373 mm(3), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Quantitative evaluation of carotid plaques using 3D T1GRE images may be useful in predicting cerebral embolism related to CAS.
