NCT02791282

Brief Summary

Phase III diagnostic trial to demonstrate that functional lung MRI can replace VQ-SPECT in a diagnostic strategy for patients with suspected CTEPH where positive findings are verified with catheter pulmonary angiography (CPA), or computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA)

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • The proportion of patients with positive MRI in the group of patients who have a positive VQ-SPECT diagnosis for chronic pulmonary embolism and who are positive in the gold standard

    6 months

  • The proportion of patients with positive MRI in the group of patients with negative VQ-SPECT who are negative in the gold standard

    6 months

Study Arms (1)

Index test: functional dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE)-MRI

OTHER

Patients with clinical suspicion for CTEPH, scheduled for SPECT

Other: Index test: functional dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE)-MRI

Interventions

Index test: functional dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE)-MRI Reference test: Ventilation-perfusion (VQ) single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) Follow-up per patient: clinical assessment after 6-12 months

Index test: functional dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE)-MRI

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Transthoracic echocardiography indicates pulmonary hypertension
  • Patients with clinical suspicion for CTEPH, scheduled for SPECT
  • Provided informed consent for the study
  • Age \>18y

You may not qualify if:

  • Patient unable to undergo MRI (e.g. due to claustrophobia, cardiac pacemaker, hypersensitivity to MR i.v. contrast imaging agents)
  • Women who are pregnant or breast feeding
