  7. Purpose To compare the detection and quantification of the main MR plaque components in vivo using • manual approach • automatic approach

  8. Material and Methods 60 patients with carotid stenosis • Extracted from a multicentric prospective study (HIRISC) • Asymptomatic high grade stenosis or symptomatic moderate stenosis • With high quality MRI (at least ¾ sequences = excellent) Training set n=20 Study group n=40 No differences for age, sex, degree of stenosis, % symptomatic stenosis

  9. Training set, n=20 Study group, n=40 Supervised classifier Software Q Plaque (Medis medical imaging bv)

  10. Manual versus Automatic méthodes • Study group : 40 patients, 344 sections • Qualitative Analysis: Kappa coefficient (IC 95%) • Quantitative Analysis: • Intraclass coefficient correlation (IC 95%) • Linear correlation between volumes • Bland Altman plots

  11. Results Qualitative analysis (per patient)

  12. Results Quantitative analysis Lipids Hemorrhage Calcium Fibrous

  13. Results LIPIDS: Bland Altman plots Volume (Manual – Automatic) Mean Volume, mm3

  14. Discussion • The automaticanalysis of atherosclerotic components on MRI is possible • Identification : • Kappa at least substantial for all components • Slightlybetter for hemorrhage (highcontrast on all sequences) • Quantification : • Best for hemorrhage, fibrous tissue, lipidcore < 100 mm3 • Poor for Calcium • In patients withoutclearsurgical indications usingdifferent MR plateforms

  15. discussion Limites • High quality images • Results could be improved with a larger training set • Fibrous cap ? • No reference (patients not scheduled for endarteriectomy)

  16. Conclusion : Automatic plaque analysis Day 0 • A gain in time • No variability • Potentially interesting for • Large multicentric therapeutic trials • Longitudinal studies • Could help the integration of HR MRI of atherosclerosis in clinical practice 1 year
