    • INTRODUCTION: Stent migration is a significant clinical problem in palliation of malignant strictures in the esophagus and gastro-esophageal junction (GEJ). We have compared a newer design of a fully-covered stent to a widely used semi-covered stent using migration >20 mm as the primary outcome variable. Effects on dysphagia, quality of life (QoL) and re-intervention frequency were also investigated.METHODS: Patients with dysphagia due to non-curable esophagus/GEJ cancer were randomized to receive either a more recent design of a fully-covered stent (n = 48) or a conventional semi-covered stent (n = 47). Chest x-ray, dysphagia and QoL were studied at baseline, one week, four weeks and three months thereafter.RESULTS: There were no significant differences either in stent migration distance or in the migration frequency. Stent migration during the total study period occurred in 37.2 % in the semi-covered group compared to 20.0 % for the fully-covered group. Dysphagia was measured with Watson and Ogilvie scores and with the dysphagia module in the QoL scale (QLQ-OG25). On average, there was a tendency to better dysphagia relief for the fully-covered design as scored with the two latter dysphagia instruments (p= 0.081 and p= 0.067) at three months and towards more re-interventions in the semi-covered group (p= 0.083).CONCLUSION: In spite of its somewhat lower intrinsic radial force, the fully-covered stent was comparable to the conventional semi-covered stent with regard to stent migration. The data further suggest a potential benefit of the fully-covered stent in improving dysphagia in patients with longer life expectancy.

  • The Swedish CArdioPulmonary BioImage Study : objectives and design
  • 2015
  • Ingår i: Journal of Internal Medicine. - : Wiley. - 0954-6820 .- 1365-2796. ; 278:6, s. 645-659

    • Cardiopulmonary diseases are major causes of death worldwide, but currently recommended strategies for diagnosis and prevention may be outdated because of recent changes in risk factor patterns. The Swedish CArdioPulmonarybioImage Study (SCAPIS) combines the use of new imaging technologies, advances in large-scale 'omics' and epidemiological analyses to extensively characterize a Swedish cohort of 30 000 men and women aged between 50 and 64 years. The information obtained will be used to improve risk prediction of cardiopulmonary diseases and optimize the ability to study disease mechanisms. A comprehensive pilot study in 1111 individuals, which was completed in 2012, demonstrated the feasibility and financial and ethical consequences of SCAPIS. Recruitment to the national, multicentre study has recently started.

  • Image Fusion of Reconstructed Digital Tomosynthesis Volumes From a Frontal and a Lateral Acquisition
  • 2016
  • Ingår i: Radiation protection dosimetry. - : Oxford University Press (OUP). - 1742-3406 .- 0144-8420. ; 169:1-4, s. 410-415
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Digital tomosynthesis (DTS) has been used in chest imaging as a low radiation dose alternative to computed tomography (CT). Traditional DTS shows limitations in the spatial resolution in the out-of-plane dimension. As a first indication of whether a dual-plane dual-view (DPDV) DTS data acquisition can yield a fair resolution in all three spatial dimensions, a manual registration between a frontal and a lateral image volume was performed. An anthropomorphic chest phantom was scanned frontally and laterally using a linear DTS acquisition, at 120 kVp. The reconstructed image volumes were resampled and manually co-registered. Expert radiologist delineations of the mediastinal soft tissues enabled calculation of similarity metrics in regard to delineations in a reference CT volume. The fused volume produced the highest total overlap, implying that the fused volume was a more isotropic 3D representation of the examined object than the traditional chest DTS volumes.

  • Pulsed-Wave Doppler Recordings in the Proximal Descending Aorta in Patients with Chronic Aortic Regurgitation: Insights from Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography. - : Elsevier BV. - 0894-7317. ; 31:3
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The pulsed-wave Doppler recording in the descending aorta (PWD DAO ) is one of the parameters used in grading aortic regurgitation (AR) severity. The aim of the present study was to investigate the assessment of chronic AR by PWD DAO with insights from cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR). Methods: This prospective study comprised 40 patients investigated with echocardiography and CMR within 4 hours either prior to valve surgery (n = 23) or as part of their follow-up (n = 17) due to moderate or severe AR. End-diastolic flow velocity (EDFV) and the diastolic velocity time integral (dVTI) were measured. The appearance of diastolic forward flow (DFF) was noted. Phase-contrast flow rate curves were obtained in the DAO. Results: Twenty-five patients had severe and eight had moderate AR by echocardiography (seven were indeterminate). The EDFV was below the recommended threshold ( > 20 cm/sec) in 13 patients (52%) with severe AR. Lowering the EDFV threshold ( > 13 cm/sec) and with a dVTI threshold > 13 cm showed negative likelihood ratios of 0.27 and 0.09, respectively. Detection of DFF with PWD DAO identified a nonuniform velocity profile by CMR with positive and negative likelihood ratios of 7.0 and 0.19, respectively. The relation between EDFV and DAO regurgitant volume (DAO-RVol CMR ) was strong in patients without (R = 0.88) and weak in patients with DFF (R = 0.49). The DAO-RVol CMR as a percent of the total RVol CMR decreased with increasing ascending aorta (AAO) size and increased with increasing AR severity. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that PWD DAO provides semiquantitative parameters useful to assess chronic AR severity. The limitations are related to nonuniform velocity contour and variable degree of lower body contribution, which depends on AR severity but also on the AAO size.

  • Evaluation of the Integrative Algorithm for Grading Chronic Aortic and Mitral Regurgitation Severity Using the Current American Society of Echocardiography Recommendations: To Discriminate Severe from Moderate Regurgitation.
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography : official publication of the American Society of Echocardiography. - : Elsevier BV. - 1097-6795. ; 31:9
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The recently published integrative algorithms for echocardiographic grading of native aortic regurgitation (AR) and mitral regurgitation (MR) by the American Society of Echocardiography are consensus based and have not been evaluated. Thus, the aims of the present study were to investigate the feasibility of individual parameters and to evaluate the ability of the algorithms to discriminate severe from moderate regurgitation.This prospective study comprised 93 patients with chronic AR (n=45) and MR (n=48). All patients underwent echocardiography and cardiovascular magnetic resonance within 4hours. The algorithms were evaluated using two different definitions for severe regurgitation: (1) a cardiovascular magnetic resonance standard indicating future need for valve surgery and (2) a clinical standard using patients who underwent valve surgery with proven postoperative left ventricular reverse remodeling and improved functional class (AR/MR, n = 26/26).The feasibility of the criteria in the first step of the algorithm was higher (AR/MR, 95%/91%) compared with the second step using quantitative Doppler parameters (74%/57%). For the AR algorithm, sensitivity was 95% and specificity 44%, whereas for the MR algorithm, sensitivity was 73% and specificity 92%. Among patients with benefit of surgery, the algorithms correctly identified 77%, misclassified 8%, and were inconclusive in 15% of the patients with AR; the corresponding figures were 73%, 15%, and 12% in the patients with MR.Using cardiovascular magnetic resonance as reference, the recommended algorithms for grading of regurgitation have the ability to rule out severe AR and rule in severe MR. The quantitative Doppler methods are hampered by feasibility issues, and our findings suggest that the decision regarding surgical intervention in symptomatic patients with discordant or inconclusive echocardiographic grading should be based on a consolidated assessment of clinical and multimodality findings.

  • Importance of through-plane heart motion correction for the assessment of aortic regurgitation severity using phase contrast magnetic resonance imaging
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Magnetic Resonance Imaging. - : Elsevier BV. - 0730-725X. ; 84, s. 69-75
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Purpose: To elucidate the influence of through-plane heart motion on the assessment of aortic regurgitation (AR) severity using phase contrast magnetic resonance imaging (PC-MRI). Approach: A patient cohort with chronic AR (n = 34) was examined with PC-MRI. The regurgitant volume (RVol) and fraction (RFrac) were extracted from the PC-MRI data before and after through-plane heart motion correction and was then used for assessment of AR severity. Results: The flow volume errors were strongly correlated to aortic diameter (R = 0.80, p < 0.001) with median (IQR 25%;75%): 16 (14; 17) ml for diameter>40mm, compared with 9 (7; 10) ml for normal aortic size (p < 0.001). RVol and RFrac were underestimated (uncorrected:64 +/- 37 ml and 39 +/- 17%; corrected:76 +/- 37 ml and 44 +/- 15%; p < 0.001) and similar to 20% of the patients received lower severity grade without correction. Conclusion: Through-plane heart motion introduces relevant flow volume errors, especially in patients with aortic dilatation that may result in underestimation of the severity grade in patients with chronic AR.

  • Surveillance of small, solid pulmonary nodules at digital chest tomosynthesis: data from a cohort of the pilot Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS)
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Acta Radiologica. - : SAGE Publications. - 0284-1851 .- 1600-0455. ; 62:3, s. 348-359
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background Digital tomosynthesis (DTS) might be a low-dose/low-cost alternative to computed tomography (CT). Purpose To investigate DTS relative to CT for surveillance of incidental, solid pulmonary nodules. Material and Methods Recruited from a population study, 106 participants with indeterminate solid pulmonary nodules on CT underwent surveillance with concurrently performed CT and DTS. Nodule size on DTS was assessed by manual diameter measurements and semi-automatic nodule segmentations were independently performed on CT. Measurement agreement was analyzed according to Bland-Altman with 95% limits of agreement (LoA). Detection of nodule volume change > 25% by DTS in comparison to CT was evaluated with receiver operating characteristics (ROC). Results A total of 81 nodules (76%) were assessed as measurable on DTS by two independent observers. Inter- and intra-observer LoA regarding change in average diameter were +/- 2 mm. Calculation of relative volume change on DTS resulted in wide inter- and intra-observer LoA in the order of +/- 100% and +/- 50%. Comparing relative volume change between DTS and CT resulted in LoA of -58% to 67%. The area under the ROC curve regarding the ability of DTS to detect volumetric changes > 25% on CT was 0.58 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.40-0.76) and 0.50 (95% CI = 0.35-0.66) for the two observers. Conclusion The results of the present study show that measurement variability limits the agreement between DTS and CT regarding nodule size change for small solid nodules.

  • Artificial intelligence based automatic quantification of epicardial adipose tissue suitable for large scale population studies
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Scientific Reports. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 2045-2322 .- 2045-2322. ; 11:1
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • To develop a fully automatic model capable of reliably quantifying epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) volumes and attenuation in large scale population studies to investigate their relation to markers of cardiometabolic risk. Non-contrast cardiac CT images from the SCAPIS study were used to train and test a convolutional neural network based model to quantify EAT by: segmenting the pericardium, suppressing noise-induced artifacts in the heart chambers, and, if image sets were incomplete, imputing missing EAT volumes. The model achieved a mean Dice coefficient of 0.90 when tested against expert manual segmentations on 25 image sets. Tested on 1400 image sets, the model successfully segmented 99.4% of the cases. Automatic imputation of missing EAT volumes had an error of less than 3.1% with up to 20% of the slices in image sets missing. The most important predictors of EAT volumes were weight and waist, while EAT attenuation was predicted mainly by EAT volume. A model with excellent performance, capable of fully automatic handling of the most common challenges in large scale EAT quantification has been developed. In studies of the importance of EAT in disease development, the strong co-variation with anthropometric measures needs to be carefully considered.

  • High prevalence of interstitial lung abnormalities in middle-aged never-smokers
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: ERJ Open Research. - : European Respiratory Society. - 2312-0541. ; 9:5
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • BACKGROUND: Interstitial lung abnormalities (ILA) are incidental findings on chest computed tomography (CT). These patterns can present at an early stage of fibrotic lung disease. Our aim was to estimate the prevalence of ILA in the Swedish population, in particular in never-smokers, and find out its association with demographics, comorbidities and symptoms.METHODS: Participants were recruited to the Swedish CArdioPulmonary BioImage Study (SCAPIS), a population-based survey including men and women aged 50-64 years performed at six university hospitals in Sweden. CT scan, spirometry and questionnaires were performed. ILA were defined as cysts, ground-glass opacities, reticular abnormality, bronchiectasis and honeycombing.FINDINGS: Out of 29 521 participants, 14 487 were never-smokers and 14 380 were men. In the whole population, 2870 (9.7%) had ILA of which 134 (0.5%) were fibrotic. In never-smokers, the prevalence was 7.9% of which 0.3% were fibrotic. In the whole population, age, smoking history, chronic bronchitis, cancer, coronary artery calcium score and high-sensitive C-reactive protein were associated with ILA. Both ILA and fibrotic ILA were associated with restrictive spirometric pattern and impaired diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide. However, individuals with ILA did not report more symptoms compared with individuals without ILA.INTERPRETATION: ILA are common in a middle-aged Swedish population including never-smokers. ILA may be at risk of being underdiagnosed among never-smokers since they are not a target for screening.

  • Characterization of Chronic Aortic and Mitral Regurgitation Undergoing Valve Surgery Using Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance.
  • 2017
  • Ingår i: The American journal of cardiology. - : Elsevier BV. - 1879-1913 .- 0002-9149. ; 119:12, s. 2061-2068

    • Grading of chronic aortic regurgitation (AR) and mitral regurgitation (MR) by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is currently based on thresholds, which are neither modality nor quantification method specific. Accordingly, this study sought to identify CMR-specific and quantification method-specific thresholds for regurgitant volumes (RVols), RVol indexes, and regurgitant fractions (RFs), which denote severe chronic AR or MR with an indication for surgery. The study comprised patients with moderate and severe chronic AR (n= 38) and MR (n= 40). Echocardiography and CMR was performed at baseline and in all operated AR/MR patients (n= 23/25) 10 ± 1months after surgery. CMR quantification of AR: direct (aortic flow) and indirect method (left ventricular stroke volume [LVSV]- pulmonary stroke volume [PuSV]); MR: 2 indirect methods (LVSV- aortic forward flow [AoFF]; mitral inflow [MiIF]- AoFF). All operated patients had severe regurgitation and benefited from surgery, indicated by a significant postsurgical reduction in end-diastolic volume index and improvement or relief of symptoms. The discriminatory ability between moderate and severe AR was strong for RVol >40ml, RVol index >20ml/m(2), and RF >30% (direct method) and RVol >62ml, RVol index >31ml/m(2), and RF >36% (LVSV-PuSV) with a negative likelihood ratio ≤ 0.2. In MR, the discriminatory ability was very strong for RVol >64ml, RVol index >32ml/m(2), and RF >41% (LVSV-AoFF) and RVol >40ml, RVol index >20ml/m(2), and RF >30% (MiIF-AoFF) with a negative likelihood ratio < 0.1. In conclusion, CMR grading of chronic AR and MR should be based on modality-specific and quantification method-specific thresholds, as they differ largely from recognized guideline criteria, to assure appropriate clinical decision-making and timing of surgery.
