BACKGROUND: To investigate the ability of a delayed respiratory-navigated, electrocardiographically-gated three-dimensional inversion recovery-prepared fast low-angle shot (3D IR FLASH) sequence to evaluate the lower airways in children undergoing routine cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR).
METHODS: This retrospective study included pediatric patients (0-18 years) who underwent clinical CMR where a delayed 3D IR FLASH sequence was performed between July 2020 and April 2021. The airway image quality and extent of lower airway visibility were graded by two blinded readers using a four-point ordinal scale (0-3). Lower airway anatomical variants and abnormalities were recorded.
RESULTS: One hundred and eighty patients were included with a median age of 11.7 (4.6-15.3) years. Fifty-one of 180 (28%) were under general anesthesia. Overall, the median grading of airway image quality was 3 (2-3) and the extent of lower airway visibility was 3 (3-3). Interrater agreement was almost perfect (κ = 0.867 and κ = 0.956, respectively). Image quality correlated with extent of lower airway visibility (r = 0.62, p < 0.01). Delayed 3D IR FLASH was able to characterize the segmental bronchi in 137/180 (76%) and lobar bronchi in 172/180 (96%) of patients. Lower airway abnormalities were identified in 37/180 (21%) of patients and 33/129 (26%) with congenital heart disease (CHD). Identified abnormalities included tracheobronchial branching anomalies in 6/180 (3%), abnormal tracheobronchial situs in 6/180 (3%), and extrinsic vascular compression in 25/180 (14%).
CONCLUSION: Delayed 3D IR FLASH has excellent performance for evaluation of the lower airway anatomy and can simultaneously assess for myocardial late gadolinium enhancement. Lower airway abnormalities are not infrequently seen in children undergoing routine CMR for CHD.
