Popis: Measurement of atrial volumes by MRI is becoming increasingly important in pediatric cardiac disorders. However, MRI normal values for atrial volumes in children are lacking.To establish pediatric reference values for atrial volumes.Retrospective.A total of 155 healthy children from two large institutions (103 male, age 13.9 ± 2.8 years, range 4-18 years).A 1.5 T; balanced steady-state free precession (bSSFP) sequence.The monoplane and biplane area-length methods were used to measure minimal and maximal left and right atrial volumes (LADescriptive statistics, lambda-mu-sigma (LMS)-method of Cole and Green, univariable and multivariable linear regression models. A P value 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant.In the multivariable linear model, body surface area was significantly associated with all atrial volumes and sex was significantly associated with RA volumes, LA volumes measured in the 2ch-view as well as biplane LAPediatric MRI reference values for atrial volumes have been provided.2 EVIDENCE LEVEL: 4.
