摘要:
Background: Accurate and reliable vascular features extracted from 3D time-of-flight (TOF) magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) can help evaluate cerebral vascular diseases and conditions. The goal of this study was to evaluate the reproducibility of an intracranial artery feature extraction (iCafe) algorithm for quantitative analysis of intracranial arteries from TOF MRA. Methods: Twenty-four patients with known intracranial artery stenosis were recruited and underwent two separate MRA scans within 2 weeks of each other. Each dataset was blinded to associated imaging and clinical data and then processed independently using iCafe. Inter-scan reproducibility analysis was performed on the 24 pairs of scans while infra-/inter-operator reproducibility and stenosis detection were assessed on 8 individual MRA scans. After tracing the vessels visualized on TOF MRA, iCafe was used to automatically extract the locations with stenosis and eight other vascular features. The vascular features included the following six morphometry and two signal intensity features: artery length (total, distal, and proximal), volume, number of branches, average radius of the M1 segment of the middle cerebral artery, and average normalized intensity of all arteries and large vertical arteries. A neuroradiologist independently reviewed the images to identify locations of stenosis for the reference standard. Reproducibility of stenosis detection and vascular features was assessed using Cohen's kappa, the infra-class correlation coefficient (ICC), and within-subject coefficient of variation (CV). Results: The segment-based sensitivity of iCafe for stenosis detection ranged from 83.3-91.7% while specificity was 97.4%. Kappa values for inter-scan and intra-operator reproducibility were 0.73 and 0.77, respectively. All vascular features demonstrated excellent inter-scan and infra-operator reproducibility (ICC = 0.91-1.00, and CV = 1.21-8.78% for all markers), and good to excellent inter-operator reproducibility (ICC = 0.76-0.99, and CV = 3.27-15.79% for all markers). Conclusion: Intracranial artery features can be reliably quantified from TOF MRA using iCafe to provide both clinical diagnostic assistance and facilitate future investigative quantitative analyses.
