Arm Label

Three imaging techniques: PET-MPI, CT-MPI, and CT-FFR

Arm Description

Participants referred for a clinical PET-MPI will also have CT-MPI and CT-FFR imaging performed for analysis of myocardial perfusion.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Myocardial Blood Flow
The absolute quantification of myocardial perfusion between CT-MPI and PET-MPI will be compared. Myocardial perfusion will be quantified using appropriate tracer kinetic models resulting myocardial blood flow mL/g/min.
Myocardial Blood Volume
The absolute quantification of myocardial perfusion between CT-MPI and PET-MPI will be compared. Myocardial perfusion will be quantified using appropriate tracer kinetic models resulting myocardial blood volume in mL/100mL.
Coronary Flow
Coronary flow will be measured using CT-FFR.
Detection of Myocardial Perfusion Abnormalities
The accuracy of detection of myocardial perfusion abnormalities will be compared between PET-MPI and the combined CT-MPI / CT-FFR approach. Diagnostic accuracy using CT-MPI and CT-FFR will be calculated in sense of sensitivity and specificity and overall AUC with PET as the reference standard.
Detection of Coronary Stenosis
The accuracy of detection of coronary stenosis will be compared between PET-MPI and the combined CT-MPI / CT-FFR approach. Diagnostic accuracy using CT-MPI/CT-FFR will be calculated in sense of sensitivity and specificity and overall AUC with PET as the reference standard and in correlation with the stenosis grade (%) as determined on coronary CT angiography.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The overall goal of this project is to compare the absolute quantification of myocardial perfusion done by using CT myocardial perfusion imaging (CT-MPI) and the coronary flow measured by using CT Fractional Flow Reserve analysis (CT-FFR) to the gold standard represented by PET myocardial perfusion imaging (PET-MPI).
Detailed Description
Participants will be patients who are scheduled to undergo PET Myocardial Perfusion Imaging, which is the traditional method for evaluating patients with suspected blockages or narrowing of the heart vessels (coronary artery disease) causing impaired blood to flow to the heart muscle (myocardium). The purpose of the study is to determine and compare the newest heart imaging equipment which allows the non-invasive evaluation of coronary anatomy, coronary flow and myocardial perfusion in patients with suspected or proven coronary artery disease (CAD) with the actual gold-standard for quantitative myocardial perfusion assessment. In order to achieve this aim, the study team will compare heart scan results from a computed tomography (CT) Myocardial Perfusion Imaging (CT-MPI) scan and CT-Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) with the actual standard clinical care represented by a PET Myocardial Perfusion Imaging (PET-MPI) study.

Arm Title

Arm Type
Other
Arm Description
Participants referred for a clinical PET-MPI will also have CT-MPI and CT-FFR imaging performed for analysis of myocardial perfusion.
Intervention Type
Diagnostic Test
Intervention Name(s)
PET-MPI Protocol
Intervention Description
Patients with suspected CAD who are referred to a clinical PET-MPI will undergo the standard clinical protocol applied in the Emory Nuclear Medicine department.
Intervention Type
Diagnostic Test
Intervention Name(s)
CT-MPI
Intervention Description
For the CT-MPI, dynamic volume CT myocardial perfusion applying the "dynamic shuttle" mode will be used to rapidly cover the entire cardiac anatomy during infusion of a contrast medium bolus for monitoring bolus passage through the left ventricular myocardium. The "dynamic shuttle" mode consists of an image acquisition during rapid, yet smooth back-and-forth movement of the CT scanner table, so that contrast media bolus passage can be evaluated within the entire left ventricle in a time-resolved fashion. This scan acquisition will be performed during pharmacologically induced stress and during rest conditions. CT-MPI studies will be contrast medium enhanced by 50-70 ml of iodinated contrast agent, administered at a flow rate of 5 mL/s.
Intervention Type
Diagnostic Test
Intervention Name(s)
CT-FFR
Intervention Description
Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) will be performed for delineation of the coronary arteries, detection of potential coronary stenosis and FFR calculation. CCTA will be performed at rest following administration of intravenous contrast agent (50-70 mL of iodinated contrast material at a flow rate of 4-5 mL/s). A total radiation dose of approximately 8 millisievert (mSv) has expected to be administered with the stress/rest protocol to the patient. The total amount of contrast agent will not exceed 140 ml.
Intervention Type
Drug
Intervention Name(s)
Regadenoson
Other Intervention Name(s)
Lexiscan
Intervention Description
Pharmacological stress testing for the CT-MPI scan will be performed with a single injection of 0.4 mg of regadenoson (Lexiscan).
