Popis: | Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of texture analysis of T2-weighted short inversion time inversion recovery (T2-STIR) for detecting myocardial tissue alterations in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Methods Twenty patients with HCM and 11 controls were examined. Texture analysis was performed for the hypertrophied regions with and without and abnormal hyperintensity (AHI) and for the interventricular septum of the controls on T2-STIR. T2 mapping was performed to measure myocardial T2 values. Results A gray-level nonuniformity value of 64.7 was the best discriminator between patients and controls with an area under the curve of 0.93 on a receiver operating characteristic curve. T2 values did not differ between them. The gray-level nonuniformity was significantly smaller in AHI regions than in the hypertrophied regions without AHI in HCM patients. Conclusions Texture analysis is useful for quantitatively detecting myocardial tissue altenations, including AHI, associated with HCM on T2-STIR. |
