Validation of MRI Instead of CT to Follow-up Ross Procedure With Loose Jacket Technique
Validation of Magnetic Resonance Imaging Against Multidetector Computed Tomography After Ross Procedure Using Loose Jacket Technique
Assiut University
70 participants
Jan 1, 2024
OBSERVATIONAL
Conditions
Summary
Patients who underwent Ross procedure with loose jacket technique will be enrolled in this study and undergo CT and MRI follow-up to compare between both modalities.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria2
- All patients who underwent Ross procedure with loose jacket technique at Aswan Heart Centre, regardless of the indication and duration after surgery.
- Patients should have survived until discharge and underwent at least one echocardiography with full data related to one or more anatomic subcomponents of the aortic root before surgery.
Exclusion Criteria3
- Patients who have contraindication for conducting cardiac CT scan. For instance, dye sensitivity, pregnancy, CKD, in addition to patients who have factors that interfere with CT image quality as metallic objects within the chest (e.g. Pacemaker).
- Patients who have contra-indication for conducting a safe MRI scan. For instance, metallic implants that are incompatible with MRI.
- Patients who underwent Ross procedure with technique other than loose jacket.

Interventions
• Cardiac MRI Protocol The cardiac MRI protocol will include cine imaging, aortic flow, and 3D navigator of the aorta. These sequences will be performed to assess aortic root dimensions, including aortic root, sinuses of Valsalva, and sinotubular junction and ascending aorta diameters. • CT Aortography Protocol: The CT aortography protocol will include non-contrast and contrast-enhanced CT imaging. The non-contrast images will be used for calcium scoring, while the contrast-enhanced images will be used to assess aortic root dimensions
