Strain-Encoded Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Dobutamine Stress Testing

NCT00758654 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 320

Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the diagnostic value of SENC to that provided by conventional wall motion analysis for the detection of inducible ischemia during DS-MRI.High-dose dobutamine stress magnetic resonance imaging (DS-MRI) is safe and feasible for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) in humans. However, the assessment of cine scans relies on the visual interpretation of regional wall motion, which is subjective. Recently, Strain-Encoded MRI (SENC) has been proposed for the direct color-coded visualization of myocardial strain.
