Abstrakt: | Objectives: Myocardial extracellular volume (ECV) on computed tomography (CT), an alternative to cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), has significant practical clinical advantages. However, the consistency between ECVs quantified via CT and CMR in cardiac amyloidosis (CA) has not been investigated sufficiently. Therefore, the current study investigated the application of CT-ECV in CA with CMR-ECV as the reference standard. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 31 patients with CA who underwent cardiac CT and CMR. Pearson correlation analysis was performed to investigate correlations between CT-ECV and CMR-ECV at each segment. Further, correlations between ECV and clinical parameters were assessed. Results: There were no significant differences in the mean global ECVs between CT scan and CMR (51.3% ± 10.2% vs 50.0% ± 10.5%). CT-ECV was correlated with CMR-ECV at the septal (r = 0.88), lateral (r = 0.80), inferior (r = 0.79), anterior (r = 0.77) segments, and global (r = 0.87). In both CT and CMR, the ECV had a weak to strong correlation with high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T level, a moderate correlation with global longitudinal strain, and an inverse correlation with left ventricular ejection fraction. Further, the septal ECV and global ECV had a slightly higher correlation with the clinical parameters. Conclusions: Cardiac CT can quantify myocardial ECV and yield results comparable to CMR in patients with CA. Moreover, a significant correlation between CT-ECV and clinical parameters was observed. Thus, CT-ECV can be an imaging biomarker and alternative to CMR-ECV. Clinical Relevance Statement: Cardiac CT can quantify myocardial ECV and yield results comparable to CMR in patients with CA, and CT-ECV can be used clinically as an imaging biomarker and alternative to CMR-ECV. Key Points: • A significant correlation was found between CT myocardial extracellular volume and cardiac MR myocardial extracellular volume in patients with cardiac amyloidosis. • In CT and cardiac MR, the myocardial extracellular volume correlated well with high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T level, global longitudinal strain, and left ventricular ejection fraction. • CT myocardial extracellular volume can be an imaging biomarker and alternative to cardiac MR myocardial extracellular volume.
