PURPOSE: To evaluate the diagnostic performance of 3.0 T unenhanced compressed-sensing sensitivity encoding (CS-SENSE) Dixon water-fat separation coronary MR angiography (CMRA) in patients with low-to-intermediate risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) and its ability to grade the severity of CAD based on Coronary Artery Disease Reporting and Data System (CAD-RADS).

METHODS: A total of 55 patients who was clinically evaluated as low-to-intermediate risk of CAD were finally included to undergo both 3.0 T CS-SENSE water-fat separation CMRA and coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA), and 11 of them also underwent X-ray coronary angiography (CAG). The severity of coronary artery disease was graded in patients who had completed both CCTA and CMRA examinations by the use of CAD-RADS reports for the patients with stable chest pain, and the diagnostic consistency between the two approaches was evaluated. Diagnostic performance of CMRA was assessed using the combination of CCTA and CAG as the reference standard for excluding or confirming CAD respectively.

RESULTS: The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and diagnostic accuracy of 3.0 T unenhanced water-fat separation coronary MRA were 90.0%, 95.0%, 81.8%, 97.4% and 94.0% for a patient-based analysis respectively. In comparison with CCTA, 3.0 T Dixon water-fat separation CMRA demonstrated excellent consistency in grading the severity of coronary heart disease according to CAD-RADS (0.77 for kappa value).

CONCLUSION: In the group of low-to-intermediate probability for CAD, 3.0 T unenhanced CS-SENSE Dixon water-fat separation CMRA can present satisfactory diagnostic performance for the exclusion of CAD with high sensitivity and negative predictive value as well as the evaluation of grading the severity of coronary artery disease.
