A Comparison Between Novel Fpga-Based Pad Monitoring System Using Ballistocardiography And The Conventional Systems For Synchronization And Gating Of Cmri At 3 Tesla: A Pilot Study
IEEE ACCESS(2020)
摘要
This pilot pre-clinical study demonstrates the applicability of a new type of pneumatic cardiac triggering (PCT) for cardiac imaging. The pilot research compares the novel FPGA-based pad monitoring system for cardiac triggering using ballistocardiography (BCG) with conventional systems based on electrocardiography (ECG) and photoplethysmography (PPG). The implemented system enables cardiac triggering without the need to fix the sensors to the patient's body. This unique approach has the potential to reduce the preparation time for examination and the examination itself and to increase patient's comfort. The pilot pre-clinical study was conducted on 10 subjects at the Siemens Prisma 3T MRI Scanner within the CEITEC Multimodal and Functional Imaging Laboratory - Central European Institute of Technology, Masaryk University, upon the approval of the Ethics Committee. In total, 748 peaks (heart beats) were detected, with 7.347 correctly identified as true positive peaks, 140 incorrectly detected as false positive peaks, and 106 missed peaks (false negative). For all subjects, the total accuracy reached 96.31% and F1 score reached 98.18%. The applicability of the proposed BCG system was also analyzed in terms of objective (BRISQUE, NIQE, PIQE) and subjective evaluation of the images by 10 experts. The study compares images from two basic cardiac sequences - TRUE FISP (Free Induction Decay Steady-State Precession) and PSIR (Phase Sensitive Inversion Recovery) sequences. The BCG system achieves comparable results with the most frequently used and most accurate clinical ECG system used as gold standard. The results prove that the BCG signal captured by our new sensor can be used as a substitute for ECG signal during MRI exam with reliability of 97%.
