Journal Article
Echocardiographic and Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging-Derived Strains in Relation to Late Gadolinium Enhancement in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
2022
Overview
We compared speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) and feature tracking cardiovascular magnetic resonance (FT-CMR) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HC) with a varying extent of fibrosis as defined by late gadolinium enhancement to look at the level of agreement between methods and their ability to relate those to myocardial fibrosis. At 2 reference centers, 79 patients with HC and 16 volunteers (the control group) underwent STE and CMR with late gadolinium enhancement and FT-CMR. Patients were classified into 3 categories: no detectable, limited, and extensive fibrosis. Global longitudinal strain (GLS) and global radial strain (GRS) were derived using FT-CMR and STE. STE-derived GRS was decreased in all HC categories compared with the control group (p <0.001), whereas FT-CMR GRS was reduced only in patients with HC with fibrosis (p <0.05). Reduced STE-derived GLS was associated with extensive fibrosis (p <0.05) and a value less than −15.2% identified those with extensive fibrosis (sensitivity 79%, specificity 92%, area under the curve 0.863, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.76 to 0.97, p <0.001). Inter-modality agreement was moderate for STE versus CMR-GLS (overall population intra-class correlation coefficient = 0.615, 95% CI 0.42 to 0.75, p <0.001; patients with HC 0.63, 0.42 to 0.76, p <0.001) and GRS (overall population intra-class correlation coefficient = 0.601, 95% CI 0.397 to 0.735, p <0.001). A low level of agreement for GRS was seen between methods in patients with HC. In conclusion, strain indexes measured using echocardiography and CMR are reduced in patients with HC compared with the control group and correlate well with the burden of myocardial fibrosis. Reduced STE-GLS can identify patients with extensive fibrosis, but whether there is an added value for risk stratification for sudden cardiac death remains to be determined.
