N2 - The aim was to compare absolute quantified myocardial perfusion (MP) to semi-quantitative measurements of MP using MRI for detection of ischemia. Twenty-nine patients underwent rest and stress MP imaging obtained by 1.5T MRI and analyzed using own developed software and by commercial available software. Linear regression analysis demonstrated that absolute quantitative data correlated stronger to maxSI (rest: r=0.296, p=.193; stress: r=0.583, p=0.011; myocardial perfusion reserve (MPR): r=0.789, p<0.001; and Δ myocardial blood flow (Δ MBF: r=0.683, p=0.004) than to upslope (rest: r=0.420, p=0.058; stress: r=0.096, p=0.704; MPR: r=0.682, p=0.004; and Δ MBF: r=0.055, p=0.804). Absolute quantified MP was able to distinguish between ischemic and non-ischemic territories at rest (left anterior descending artery (LAD): 103.1±11.3mL/100g/min vs. 206.3±98.5mL/100g/min; p=0.001, right coronary artery (RCA): 124.1±45.2mL/100g/min vs. 241.3±81.7mL/100g/min; p<0.001, and left circumflex artery (LCX): 132.8±53.8mL/100g/min vs. 181.2±56.6mL/100g/min; p=0.060) and at stress (LAD: 148.1±47.2mL/100g/min vs. 296.6±111.6mL/100g/min; p=0.012, RCA: 173.4±63.7mL/100g/min vs. 290.2±100.6mL/100g/min; p=0.008, and LCX: 206.6±105.1mL/100g/min vs. 273.8±78.0mL/100g/min; p=0.186). The correlation between global maxSI and positron emission tomography data was non-significant at rest and borderline significant at stress (r=0.265, p=0.382 and r=0.601, p=0.050, respectively). Quantified MP may be useful in patients for detection of ischemia.
