    • Objectives: This study determined: 1) the interobserver agreement; 2) valvular flow variation; and 3) which variables independently predicted the variation of valvular flow quantification from 4-dimensional (4D) flow cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) with automated retrospective valve tracking at multiple sites. Background: Automated retrospective valve tracking in 4D flow CMR allows consistent assessment of valvular flow through all intracardiac valves. However, due to the variance of CMR scanners and protocols, it remains uncertain if the published consistency holds for other clinical centers. Methods: Seven sites each retrospectively or prospectively selected 20 subjects who underwent whole heart 4D flow CMR (64 patients and 76 healthy volunteers; aged 32 years [range 24 to 48 years], 47% men, from 2014 to 2020), which was acquired with locally used CMR scanners (scanners from 3 vendors; 2 1.5-T and 5 3-T scanners) and protocols. Automated retrospective valve tracking was locally performed at each site to quantify the valvular flow and repeated by 1 central site. Interobserver agreement was evaluated with intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs). Net forward volume (NFV) consistency among the valves was evaluated by calculating the intervalvular variation. Multiple regression analysis was performed to assess the predicting effect of local CMR scanners and protocols on the intervalvular inconsistency. Results: The interobserver analysis demonstrated strong-to-excellent agreement for NFV (ICC: 0.85 to 0.96) and moderate-to-excellent agreement for regurgitation fraction (ICC: 0.53 to 0.97) for all sites and valves. In addition, all observers established a low intervalvular variation (≤10.5%) in their analysis. The availability of 2 cine images per valve for valve tracking compared with 1 cine image predicted a decreasing variation in NFV among the 4 valves (beta = −1.3; p = 0.01). Conclusions: Independently of locally used CMR scanners and protocols, valvular flow quantification can be performed consistently with automated retrospective valve tracking in 4D flow CMR.

  • Liver investigation: Testing marker utility in steatohepatitis (LITMUS): Assessment & validation of imaging modality performance across the NAFLD spectrum in a prospectively recruited cohort study (the LITMUS imaging study): Study protocol
  • 2023

    • Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the liver manifestation of the metabolic syndrome with global prevalence reaching epidemic levels. Despite the high disease burden in the population only a small proportion of those with NAFLD will develop progressive liver disease, for which there is currently no approved pharmacotherapy. Identifying those who are at risk of progressive NAFLD currently requires a liver biopsy which is problematic. Firstly, liver biopsy is invasive and therefore not appropriate for use in a condition like NAFLD that affects a large proportion of the population. Secondly, biopsy is limited by sampling and observer dependent variability which can lead to misclassification of disease severity. Non-invasive biomarkers are therefore needed to replace liver biopsy in the assessment of NAFLD. Our study addresses this unmet need. The LITMUS Imaging Study is a prospectively recruited multi-centre cohort study evaluating magnetic resonance imaging and elastography, and ultrasound elastography against liver histology as the reference standard. Imaging biomarkers and biopsy are acquired within a 100-day window. The study employs standardised processes for imaging data collection and analysis as well as a real time central monitoring and quality control process for all the data submitted for analysis. It is anticipated that the high-quality data generated from this study will underpin changes in clinical practice for the benefit of people with NAFLD. Study Registration: clinicaltrials.gov: NCT05479721
