    No full text
    International audienceThis pilot study performed on a preclinical system at 4.7T shows the feasibility of using the echo planar spectroscopic imaging sequence (EPSI with a spin echo) to quantify the fatty acid composition. This sequence permitted to image separately each resonating component of fat spectrum. The signal of the EPSI sequence was compared with more standard spectroscopic sequence used for the fatty acid quantification (PRESS). Thequantification results from the EPSI sequence on calibrated phantom were consistent with gas chromatography theoretical values. The in vivoacquisition showed a significant difference of the fatty acid composition between the subcutaneous and the visceral adipose tissue, consistent withpublished monovoxel results.Abstract available: https://index.mirasmart.com/ISMRM2019/PDFfiles/1937.htm

    National audienceIntroductionBien que l’obĂ©sitĂ© soit dĂ©finie par un indice de masse corporelle (IMC) supĂ©rieur ou Ă©gal Ă  30 kg/m2, la rĂ©partition du tissu adipeux (TA) est dĂ©terminante pour l’évaluation des facteurs de risque cardiomĂ©taboliques. Au niveau de l’abdomen, l’expansion du TA viscĂ©ral est associĂ©e Ă  un risque accru de dĂ©velopper une insulino-rĂ©sistance et un diabĂšte de type 2, contrairement Ă  l’expansion du TA sous-cutanĂ© [1]. L’imagerie par rĂ©sonance magnĂ©tique nuclĂ©aire (IRM) du proton est une technique non-ionisante qui permet d’évaluer ces volumes graisseux. Nous Ă©tudions la faisabilitĂ© de dĂ©tecter des changements volumĂ©triques et qualitatifs (nature des acides gras : saturĂ© (SFA), mono-insaturĂ© (MUFA) ou polyinsaturĂ© (PUFA)) des adipositĂ©s abdominales et du foie plus particuliĂšrement dans la phase de prise de poids, en utilisant une sĂ©quence unique d’imagerie.Sujets et mĂ©thode34 hommes volontaires sains, ĂągĂ©s de 18 Ă  55 ans avec un IMC compris entre 23 et 27 kg/mÂČ ont suivi un protocole de surnutrition hyperglucidique et hyperlipidique s’étalant sur 31 jours (apport journalier supplĂ©mentaire de +50% des dĂ©penses Ă©nergĂ©tiques journaliĂšres soit environ 1100 kcal). Ces sujets passent un IRM avant (1) et aprĂšs (2) la surnutrition. Une sĂ©quence 3D multiple Ă©chos de gradient, acquise sur la rĂ©gion abdominale, permet par un ajustement paramĂ©trique d’obtenir la cartographie de fraction de graisse en densitĂ© de proton et la composition en acides gras [2]. Cette cartographie sera utilisĂ©e pour la segmentation des volumes de graisse sous-cutanĂ©e et viscĂ©rale (entre les lombaires L2 et L4). La segmentation automatique est basĂ©e sur la mĂ©thode de Lankton [3]. Le taux de graisse dans le foie est aussi mesurĂ© Ă  partir de cette cartographie. Des T-test appariĂ©s sont utilisĂ©s pour les analyses statistiques.RĂ©sultatsEntre les deux IRM, on constate une augmentation significative (p<0.001) des volumes de graisse du TA viscĂ©ral (+12% du volume initial) et du TA sous-cutanĂ© (+11% du volume initial) entre les deux IRM. On observe une augmentation significative (p<0.001) du taux de graisse dans le foie entre l’IRM 1 (taux moyen de 2.32%) et l’IRM 2 (taux moyen de 3.42%). Au niveau de la composition en acide gras (Ă©valuĂ©e sur 1 coupe), celle du TA viscĂ©ral (pour IRM1 : 14.2% PUFA, 38.5% MUFA, 47.3% SFA) est significativement diffĂ©rente (p<0.001) de celle du TA sous-cutanĂ©e (pour IRM1 : 17.8% PUFA, 41.1% MUFA, 41.1% SFA) pour les deux IRM. De plus, on observe une augmentation significative des MUFA (p=0.01) et une tendance Ă  la baisse des SFA (p=0.04) dans le TA viscĂ©ral.ConclusionLa surnutrition a un effet significatif sur le stockage des graisses dans l’organisme : une augmentation du TA viscĂ©ral et du TAsous-cutanĂ©, un stockage de graisse dans le foie et une modification de la composition des graisses. Dans cette Ă©tude, toutes ces observations ont pu ĂȘtre faites Ă  partir d’une sĂ©quence unique d’imagerie et d’un post traitement adaptĂ©.RĂ©fĂ©rences1. Alligier M, et al.

    Quantification of abdominal subcutaneous and visceral fat by magnetic resonance imaging of the proton at 3T: application to an overfeeding protocol

    No full text
    International audienceOverweight and obesity are a major worldwide health problem increasing the risk to develop pathologies such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. The metabolic risk is modulated by the adiposity distribution and the fatty acid composition. Quantitative MRI to assess the fat volumes and composition is still little used. This study shows, using a single 3D multiple gradient echo sequence, that overfeeding has a significant effect on fat storage in the body with an increase of visceral and subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissues volumes, fat storage in the liver and seems to have an effect on stored fat composition

    International audiencePurposeTo assess the T1ρ and T2 values in the hip cartilage of healthy volunteers and to evaluate the reproducibility of these measurements.Materials and MethodsThe right hip joint of 30 asymptomatic volunteers was explored with 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Quantitative 3D T1ρ- and T2-maps sequences were repeated twice with a 30-minute delay (immediate reproducibility). The same protocol was repeated 14 days later (short-term reproducibility). Immediate and short-term reproducibility were estimated using coefficients of variation and correlation concordance coefficients (CCC). The precisions of the measurements were estimated by the ratio of the standard deviations. A mixed linear model was used to analyze the effect of patient's characteristics on T1ρ and T2 values.ResultsImmediate reproducibility was significantly better than short-term reproducibility for T1ρ (CCC of 0.75 versus 0.55; P = 0.007) and T2 (CCC 0.65 versus 0.32; P < 0.001). The precisions of the measurements were estimated between 5.5% and 9.1%. Median T1ρ values were 6.0 msec higher in women than in men (P = 0.006), with no significant influence of age, body mass index (BMI), or sports activity. Median T2 values were not significantly different between men and women (0.4 msec lower in women; P = 0.76). There was no significant influence of age, BMI, or sports activity. T1ρ and T2 values were lower in lateral regions than in medial regions (4.9 msec and 2.5 msec lower respectively; P < 0.0001).ConclusionImmediate reproducibility of T1ρ and T2 values is better than short-term, with limited effect of 30 minutes decubitus. T1ρ values are significantly higher in women.Level of Evidence: 2Technical Efficacy: Stage

    International audienceA total of 76 patients were enrolled in this retrospective monocentric study. All patients had a non-metastatic triple negative breast cancer and underwent a pre-therapeutic MRI protocol (T1-weighted, T2-weigthed, diffusion-weighted and dynamic-contrast-enhanced imaging) before a neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Results of radiomic analyses based on multiple contrast images and using 3 classifiers (support vector machine, Random forest and multilayer perceptron) were leading to a relative interest of using a combination of features extracted from DCE-MRI, T1W and T2W in the aim to predict responders and non-responders
