Background
The myocardial kinetic energy (KE) and its association with pulmonary regurgitation (PR) have yet to be investigated in repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF) patients.
Purpose
To evaluate the adaptation of myocardial KE in rTOF patients by tissue phase mapping (TPM).
Study Type
Prospective.
Population
A total of 49 rTOF patients (23 ± 5 years old; male = 32), 47 normal controls (22 ± 1 year old; male = 29).
Field Strength/Sequence
3‐T/2D dark‐blood three‐directional velocity‐encoded gradient‐echo sequence.
Assessment
Left and right ventricle (LV, RV) myocardial KE in radial (KEr), circumferential (KEø), longitudinal (KEz) directions. The proportions of KE in each direction to the sum of all KE (KErøz): %KEr, %KEø, %KEz. PR fraction.
Statistical Test
Student's t test, multivariable regression. Statistical significance: P < 0.05.
Results
In rTOF group, LV KEz remained normal in systole (P = 0.565) and diastole (P = 0.210), whereas diastolic LV %KEz (62% ± 14% vs. 72% ± 7%) and systolic LV %KEø (9% ± 6% vs. 20% ± 7%) were significantly decreased. The KEr and %KEr of both ventricles significantly increased in the rTOF group (RV in diastole: 6 ± 3 vs. 3 ± 1 μJ and 54% ± 13% vs. 27% ± 7%). The rTOF group exhibited significantly higher RV/LV ratios of %KEr (systole: 1.3 ± 0.3 vs. 1.0 ± 0.3) and %KEø (systole: 1.6 ± 0.8 vs. 1.0 ± 0.3) and significantly lower ratios of %KEz in systole (0.7 ± 0.2 vs. 1.0 ± 0.1) and diastole (0.5 ± 0.2 vs. 0.9 ± 0.1). In multivariable regression analysis, the RV peak systolic KErøz, RV systolic KEz, and LV diastolic %KEø were independently associated with PR fraction in the rTOF group (adjusted R2 = 0.479).
Data Conclusion
In rTOF patients, the adaptation of the KE proportion occurred earlier than that of the KE amplitude, and the biventricular balance of %KE was disrupted. PR may cause differential KE adaptation in RV and LV. TPM‐derived KE may be useful in investigation of myocardial adaptation in rTOF patients.
