Abstract Background Heart failure- (HF) and arrhythmia-related complications are the main causes of morbidity and mortality in patients with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (NIDCM). Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is a noninvasive tool for risk stratification based on fibrosis assessment. Diffuse interstitial fibrosis in NIDCM may be a limitation for fibrosis assessment through late gadolinium enhancement (LGE), which might be overcome through quantitative T1 and extracellular volume (ECV) assessment. T1 and ECV prognostic value for arrhythmia-related events remain poorly investigated. We asked whether T1 and ECV have a prognostic value in NIDCM patients. Methods This prospective multicenter study analyzed 225 patients with NIDCM confirmed by CMR who were followed up for 2 years. CMR evaluation included LGE, native T1 mapping and ECV values. The primary endpoint was the occurrence of a major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) which was divided in two groups: HF-related events and arrhythmia-related events. Optimal cutoffs for prediction of MACE occurrence were calculated for all CMR quantitative values. Results Fifty-eight patients (26%) developed a MACE during follow-up, 42 patients (19%) with HF-related events and 16 patients (7%) arrhythmia-related events. T1 Z-score (p = 0.008) and global ECV (p = 0.001) were associated with HF-related events occurrence, in addition to left ventricular ejection fraction (p 32.1% (optimal cutoff) remained the only CMR independent predictor of HF-related events occurrence (HR 2.15 [1.14–4.07], p = 0.018). In the arrhythmia-related events group, patients had increased native T1 Z-score and ECV values, with both T1 Z-score > 4.2 and ECV > 30.5% (optimal cutoffs) being independent predictors of arrhythmia-related events occurrence (respectively, HR 2.86 [1.06–7.68], p = 0.037 and HR 2.72 [1.01–7.36], p = 0.049). Conclusions ECV was the sole independent predictive factor for both HF- and arrhythmia-related events in NIDCM patients. Native T1 was also an independent predictor in arrhythmia-related events occurrence. The addition of ECV and more importantly native T1 in the decision-making algorithm may improve arrhythmia risk stratification in NIDCM patients. Trial registration NCT02352129.

BackgroundCurrent treatments of chemotherapy-induced cardiomyopathy (CCM) are of limited efficacy. We assessed whether repeated intravenous injections of human extracellular vesicles from cardiac progenitor cells (EV-CPC) could represent a new therapeutic option and whether EV manufacturing according to a Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP)-compatible process did not impair their bioactivity.MethodsImmuno-competent mice received intra-peritoneal injections (IP) of doxorubicin (DOX) (4 mg/kg each; cumulative dose: 12 mg/kg) and were then intravenously (IV) injected three times with EV-CPC (total dose: 30 billion). Cardiac function was assessed 9–11 weeks later by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) using strain as the primary end point. Then, immuno-competent rats received 5 IP injections of DOX (3 mg/kg each; cumulative dose 15 mg/kg) followed by 3 equal IV injections of GMP-EV (total dose: 100 billion). Cardiac function was assessed by two dimensional-echocardiography.ResultsIn the chronic mouse model of CCM, DOX + placebo-injected hearts incurred a significant decline in basal (global, epi- and endocardial) circumferential strain compared with sham DOX-untreated mice (p = 0.043, p = 0.042, p = 0.048 respectively) while EV-CPC preserved these indices. Global longitudinal strain followed a similar pattern. In the rat model, IV injections of GMP-EV also preserved left ventricular end-systolic and end-diastolic volumes compared with untreated controls.ConclusionsIntravenously-injected extracellular vesicles derived from CPC have cardio-protective effects which may make them an attractive user-friendly option for the treatment of CCM.

ObjectivesMyocardial injury assessment from delayed enhancement magnetic resonance images is routinely limited to global descriptors such as size and transmurality. Statistical tools from computational anatomy can drastically improve this characterization, and refine the assessment of therapeutic procedures aiming at infarct size reduction. Based on these techniques, we propose a new characterization of myocardial injury up to the pixel resolution. We demonstrate it on the imaging data from the Minimalist Immediate Mechanical Intervention randomized clinical trial (MIMI: NCT01360242), which aimed at comparing immediate and delayed stenting in acute ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) patients.MethodsWe analyzed 123 patients from the MIMI trial (62 ± 12 years, 98 male, 65 immediate 58 delayed stenting). Early and late enhancement images were transported onto a common geometry using techniques inspired by statistical atlases, allowing pixel-wise comparisons across population subgroups. A practical visualization of lesion patterns against specific clinical and therapeutic characteristics was also proposed using state-of-the-art dimensionality reduction.ResultsInfarct patterns were roughly comparable between the two treatments across the whole myocardium. Subtle but significant local differences were observed for the LCX and RCA territories with higher transmurality for delayed stenting at lateral and inferior/inferoseptal locations, respectively (15% and 23% of myocardial locations with a p-value

IntroductionCardioprotection strategies remain a new frontier in treating acute myocardial infarction (AMI), aiming at further protect the myocardium from the ischemia-reperfusion damage. Therefore, we aimed at investigating the mechano-transduction effects induced by shock waves (SW) therapy at time of the ischemia reperfusion as a non-invasive cardioprotective innovative approach to trigger healing molecular mechanisms.MethodsWe evaluated the SW therapy effects in an open-chest pig ischemia-reperfusion (IR) model, with quantitative cardiac Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging performed along the experiments at multiple time points (baseline (B), during ischemia (I), at early reperfusion (ER) (∼15 min), and late reperfusion (LR) (3 h)). AMI was obtained by a left anterior artery temporary occlusion (50 min) in 18 pigs (32 ± 1.9 kg) randomized into SW therapy and control groups. In the SW therapy group, treatment was started at the end of the ischemia period and extended during early reperfusion (600 + 1,200 shots @0.09 J/mm2, f = 5 Hz). The MR protocol included at all time points LV global function assessment, regional strain quantification, native T1 and T2 parametric mapping. Then, after contrast injection (gadolinium), we obtained late gadolinium imaging and extra-cellular volume (ECV) mapping. Before animal sacrifice, Evans blue dye was administrated after re-occlusion for area-at-risk sizing.ResultsDuring ischemia, LVEF decreased in both groups (25 ± 4.8% in controls (p = 0.031), 31.6 ± 3.2% in SW (p = 0.02). After reperfusion, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) remained significantly decreased in controls (39.9 ± 4% at LR vs. 60 ± 5% at baseline (p = 0.02). In the SW group, LVEF increased quickly ER (43.7 ± 11.4% vs. 52.4 ± 8.2%), and further improved at LR (49.4 ± 10.1) (ER vs. LR p = 0.05), close to baseline reference (LR vs. B p = 0.92). Furthermore, there was no significant difference in myocardial relaxation time (i.e. edema) after reperfusion in the intervention group compared to the control group: ΔT1 (MI vs. remote) was increased by 23.2±% for SW vs. +25.2% for the controls, while ΔT2 (MI vs. remote) increased by +24.9% for SW vs. +21.7% for the control group.DiscussionIn conclusion, we showed in an ischemia-reperfusion open-chest swine model that SW therapy, when applied near the relief of 50′ LAD occlusion, led to a nearly immediate cardioprotective effect translating to a reduction in the acute ischemia-reperfusion lesion size and to a significant LV function improvement. These new and promising results related to the multi-targeted effects of SW therapy in IR injury need to be confirmed by further in-vivo studies in close chest models with longitudinal follow-up.

Abstract Background While multiple cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) methods provide excellent reproducibility of global circumferential and global longitudinal strain, achieving highly reproducible segmental strain is more challenging. Previous single-center studies have demonstrated excellent reproducibility of displacement encoding with stimulated echoes (DENSE) segmental circumferential strain. The present study evaluated the reproducibility of DENSE for measurement of whole-slice or global circumferential (Ecc), longitudinal (Ell) and radial (Err) strain, torsion, and segmental Ecc at multiple centers. Methods Six centers participated and a total of 81 subjects were studied, including 60 healthy subjects and 21 patients with various types of heart disease. CMR utilized 3 T scanners, and cine DENSE images were acquired in three short-axis planes and in the four-chamber long-axis view. During one imaging session, each subject underwent two separate DENSE scans to assess inter-scan reproducibility. Each subject was taken out of the scanner and repositioned between the scans. Intra-user, inter-user-same-site, inter-user-different-site, and inter-user-Human-Deep-Learning (DL) comparisons assessed the reproducibility of different users analyzing the same data. Inter-scan comparisons assessed the reproducibility of DENSE from scan to scan. The reproducibility of whole-slice or global Ecc, Ell and Err, torsion, and segmental Ecc were quantified using Bland–Altman analysis, the coefficient of variation (CV), and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). CV was considered excellent for CV ≤ 10%, good for 10% 40. ICC values were considered excellent for ICC > 0.74, good for ICC 0.6

Fasting provokes fundamental changes in the activation of metabolic and signaling pathways leading to longer and healthier lifespans in animal models. Although the involvement of different metabolites in fueling human fasting metabolism is well known, the contribution of tissues and organs to their supply remains partly unclear. Also, changes in organ volume and composition remain relatively unexplored. Thus, processes involved in remodeling tissues during fasting and food reintroduction need to be better understood. Therefore, this study will apply state-of-the-art techniques to investigate the effects of long-term fasting (LF) and food reintroduction in humans by a multi-systemic approach focusing on changes in body composition, organ and tissue volume, lipid transport and storage, sources of protein utilization, blood metabolites, and gut microbiome profiles in a single cohort. This is a prospective, single-arm, monocentric trial. One hundred subjects will be recruited and undergo 9 ± 3 day-long fasting periods (250 kcal/day). We will assess changes in the composition of organs, bones and blood lipid profiles before and after fasting, as well as high-density lipoprotein (HDL) transport and storage, untargeted metabolomics of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), protein persulfidation and shotgun metagenomics of the gut microbiome. The first 32 subjects, fasting for 12 days, will be examined in more detail by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and spectroscopy to provide quantitative information on changes in organ volume and function, followed by an additional follow-up examination after 1 and 4 months. The study protocol was approved by the ethics board of the State Medical Chamber of Baden-Württemberg on 26.07.2021 and registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05031598). The results will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications, international conferences and social media.Clinical trial registration[ClinicalTrials.gov], identifier [NCT05031598].

ObjectivesThe effects of ultra-distance on cardiac remodeling and fibrosis are unclear. Moreover, there are no data reporting the kinetics of cardiac alterations throughout the event and during recovery. Our aim was to investigate the kinetics of biological markers including new cardiac fibrosis biomarkers suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (ST2) and galectin-3 (Gal-3) during and after an extreme mountain ultramarathon.MethodsFifty experienced runners participating in one of the most challenging mountain ultramarathons (330 km, D+ 25,000 m) were enrolled in our study. Blood samples were collected at four time points: before (Pre-), at 148 km (Mid-), at the finish line (Post-), and 3 days after the recovery period (Recov-).ResultsThe cardiac fibrosis biomarkers (ST2 and Gal-3) increased from Pre- to Mid-. During the second half, ST2 remained higher than pre-values as opposed to Gal-3. Necrosis, ischemia, and myocyte injury biomarkers increased until Mid- then decreased but remained higher at Recov- than Pre-values. Oxidative stress appeared at Mid-. Lipid peroxides remained higher at Recov- compared to Pre-. The maximal value in most of these biomarkers was observed at Mid- and not at Post-.ConclusionsThe present study supports biphasic kinetics of cardiac fibrosis biomarkers, with a relative recovery during the second half of the event that seems specific to this extreme event. Overall, performing at such an extreme ultramarathon seems less deleterious for the heart than shorter events.

Medicine ,Science - Abstract
In the last decade, a large number of clinical trials have been deployed using Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) to evaluate cardioprotective strategies aiming at reducing the irreversible myocardial damage at the time of reperfusion. In these studies, segmentation and quantification of myocardial infarct lesion are often performed with a commercial software or an in-house closed-source code development thus creating a barrier for reproducible research. This paper introduces CMRSegTools: an open-source application software designed for the segmentation and quantification of myocardial infarct lesion enabling full access to state-of-the-art segmentation methods and parameters, easy integration of new algorithms and standardised results sharing. This post-processing tool has been implemented as a plug-in for the OsiriX/Horos DICOM viewer leveraging its database management functionalities and user interaction features to provide a bespoke tool for the analysis of cardiac MR images on large clinical cohorts. CMRSegTools includes, among others, user-assisted segmentation of the left-ventricle, semi- and automatic lesion segmentation methods, advanced statistical analysis and visualisation based on the American Heart Association 17-segment model. New segmentation methods can be integrated into the plug-in by developing components based on image processing and visualisation libraries such as ITK and VTK in C++ programming language. CMRSegTools allows the creation of training and testing data sets (labeled features such as lesion, microvascular obstruction and remote ROI) for supervised Machine Learning methods, and enables the comparative assessment of lesion segmentation methods via a single and integrated platform. The plug-in has been successfully used by several CMR imaging studies.

PURPOSE: To develop a three-dimensional (two dimensions + time) convolutional neural network trained with displacement encoding with stimulated echoes (DENSE) data for displacement and strain analysis of cine MRI. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this retrospective multicenter study, a deep learning model (StrainNet) was developed to predict intramyocardial displacement from contour motion. Patients with various heart diseases and healthy controls underwent cardiac MRI examinations with DENSE between August 2008 and January 2022. Network training inputs were a time series of myocardial contours from DENSE magnitude images, and ground truth data were DENSE displacement measurements. Model performance was evaluated using pixelwise end-point error (EPE). For testing, StrainNet was applied to contour motion from cine MRI. Global and segmental circumferential strain (E(cc)) derived from commercial feature tracking (FT), StrainNet, and DENSE (reference) were compared using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs), Pearson correlations, Bland-Altman analyses, paired t tests, and linear mixed-effects models. RESULTS: The study included 161 patients (110 men; mean age, 61 years ± 14 [SD]), 99 healthy adults (44 men; mean age, 35 years ± 15), and 45 healthy children and adolescents (21 males; mean age, 12 years ± 3). StrainNet showed good agreement with DENSE for intramyocardial displacement, with an average EPE of 0.75 mm ± 0.35. The ICCs between StrainNet and DENSE and FT and DENSE were 0.87 and 0.72, respectively, for global E(cc) and 0.75 and 0.48, respectively, for segmental E(cc). Bland-Altman analysis showed that StrainNet had better agreement than FT with DENSE for global and segmental E(cc). CONCLUSION: StrainNet outperformed FT for global and segmental E(cc) analysis of cine MRI.

Objectives To investigate the efficacy of an in-line non-rigid motion-compensated reconstruction (NRC) in an image-navigated high-resolution three-dimensional late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) sequence with Dixon water–fat separation, in a clinical setting. Methods Forty-seven consecutive patients were enrolled prospectively and examined with 1.5 T MRI. NRC reconstructions were compared to translational motion-compensated reconstructions (TC) of the same datasets in overall and different sub-category image quality scores, diagnostic confidence, contrast ratios, LGE pattern, and semiautomatic LGE quantification. Results NRC outperformed TC in all image quality scores (p < 0.001 to 0.016; e.g., overall image quality 5/5 points vs. 4/5). Overall image quality was downgraded in only 23% of NRC datasets vs. 53% of TC datasets due to residual respiratory motion. In both reconstructions, LGE was rated as ischemic in 11 patients and non-ischemic in 10 patients, while it was absent in 26 patients. NRC delivered significantly higher LGE-to-myocardium and blood-to-myocardium contrast ratios (median 6.33 vs. 5.96, p < 0.001 and 4.88 vs. 4.66, p < 0.001, respectively). Automatically detected LGE mass was significantly lower in the NRC reconstruction (p < 0.001). Diagnostic confidence was identical in all cases, with high confidence in 89% and probable in 11% datasets for both reconstructions. No case was rated as inconclusive. Conclusions The in-line implementation of a non-rigid motion-compensated reconstruction framework improved image quality in image-navigated free-breathing, isotropic high-resolution 3D LGE imaging with undersampled spiral-like Cartesian sampling and Dixon water–fat separation compared to translational motion correction of the same datasets. The sharper depictions of LGE may lead to more accurate measures of LGE mass. Key Points • 3D LGE imaging provides high-resolution detection of myocardial scarring. • Non-rigid motion correction provides better image quality in cardiac MRI. • Non-rigid motion correction may lead to more accurate measures of LGE mass.

Context: Hamstring muscle injury location using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is not so well described in the literature. Objective: To describe the location of hamstring injuries using MRI. Data Sources: PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, SPORTDiscus, Cochrane Library. Study Selection: The full text of studies, in English, had to be available. Case reports and reviews were excluded. Included studies must report the location of hamstring injuries using MRI within 8 days of the acute injury. Study Design: Systematic review. Level of Evidence: Level 4. Data Extraction: A first screening was conducted based on title and abstract of the articles. In the second screening, the full text of the remaining articles was evaluated for the fulfillment of the inclusion criteria. Results: From the 2788 references initially found in 5 databases, we included 34 studies, reporting a total of 2761 acute hamstring injuries. The most frequent muscle head involved was the long head of the biceps femoris (BFLH) (70%), followed by the semitendinosus (ST) (15%), generally associated with BFLH. The most frequent tissue affected was the myotendinous junction (MTJ) accounting for half the cases (52%). Among all lesions, the distribution between proximal, central, and distal lesions looked homogenous, with 34.0%, 33.4% and 32.6%, respectively. The stretching mechanism, while only reported in 2 articles, represented 3% of all reported mechanisms, appears responsible for a specific lesion involving the proximal tendon of the semimembranosus (SM), and leading to a longer time out from sport. Conclusion: BFLH was the most often affected hamstring injuries and MTJ was the most affected tissue. In addition, the distal, central, and proximal locations were homogeneously distributed. We also noted that MRI descriptions of hamstring injuries are often poor and did not take full advantage of the MRI strengths. Systematic Review Registration: Before study initiation, the study was registered in the PROSPERO International prospective register of systematic reviews (registration number CRD42018107580).

International audience; Cardiac diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is an emerging technique for the in vivo characterisation of myocardial microstructure, and there is a growing need for its validation and standardisation. We sought to establish the accuracy, precision, repeatability and reproducibility of state-of-the-art pulse sequences for cardiac DTI among 10 centres internationally. Phantoms comprising 0%-20% polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) were scanned with DTI using a product pulsed gradient spin echo (PGSE; N = 10 sites) sequence, and a custom motion-compensated spin echo (SE; N = 5) or stimulated echo acquisition mode (STEAM; N = 5) sequence suitable for cardiac DTI in vivo. A second identical scan was performed 1-9 days later, and the data were analysed centrally. The average mean diffusivities (MDs) in 0% PVP were (1.124, 1.130, 1.113) x 10-3 mm2 /s for PGSE, SE and STEAM, respectively, and accurate to within 1.5% of reference data from the literature. The coefficients of variation in MDs across sites were 2.6%, 3.1% and 2.1% for PGSE, SE and STEAM, respectively, and were similar to previous studies using only PGSE. Reproducibility in MD was excellent, with mean differences in PGSE, SE and STEAM of (0.3 ± 2.3, 0.24 ± 0.95, 0.52 ± 0.58) x 10-5 mm2 /s (mean ± 1.96 SD). We show that custom sequences for cardiac DTI provide accurate, precise, repeatable and reproducible measurements. Further work in anisotropic and/or deforming phantoms is warranted.

International audience; Cardiac perfusion MRI is proving to be a valuable noninvasive assessment tool in the armamentarium for patients with suspected coronary artery disease or microvascular disease, both for initial diagnosis and for follow-up to therapeutic decision. In particular, it has recently been shown to be comparable and more cost-effective than invasive fractional flow reserve for therapeutic guidance of patients with suspected CAD 1. This is especially true since the long-awaited results of the ISCHEMIA study challenge invasive management of coronary artery disease and demonstrate the value of optimal medical treatment 2. The Orbita study also masterfully demonstrated that an invasive approach is not the ultimate solution to propose to symptomatic coronary patients 3. In this context of decreasing radicality and slowing down of the therapeutic approach with an increasing role of an optimized medical approach, it is clear that dynamic cardiac perfusion MRI with contrast imaging therefore promises to become the cornerstone of regular follow-up that will be proposed in future guidelines.

In our book “Navier–Stokes Equations in Planar Domains”, Imperial College Press, 2013, we have suggested a fourth-order compact scheme for the Navier–Stokes equations in streamfunction formulation $$\partial _t(\Delta \psi )+(\nabla ^{\perp }\psi ) \cdot \nabla (\Delta \psi ) =\nu \Delta ^2 \psi $$ . Here we present a new approach for the analysis of a high-order compact scheme for the Navier–Stokes equations in cases where the convective term vanishes, or in cases where the viscous term dominates the convective term. In these cases the Navier–Stokes equations is replaced by the time-dependent Stokes equation $$\partial _t(\Delta \psi )=\nu \Delta ^2 \psi $$ . The same type of fourth-order compact schemes that were proposed for the Navier–Stokes equations, may be adopted to the time-dependent Stokes problem. For these methods the truncation error is only of first-order at near-boundary points, but is of fourth order at interior points. We prove that the rate of convergence is actually four, thus the error tends to zero as $$O(h^4)$$ , where h is the size of the mesh.

Background While multiple cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) methods provide excellent reproducibility of global circumferential and global longitudinal strain, achieving highly reproducible segmental strain is more challenging. Previous single-center studies have demonstrated excellent reproducibility of displacement encoding with stimulated echoes (DENSE) segmental circumferential strain. The present study evaluated the reproducibility of DENSE for measurement of whole-slice or global circumferential (Ecc), longitudinal (Ell) and radial (Err) strain, torsion, and segmental Ecc at multiple centers. Methods Six centers participated and a total of 81 subjects were studied, including 60 healthy subjects and 21 patients with various types of heart disease. CMR utilized 3 T scanners, and cine DENSE images were acquired in three short-axis planes and in the four-chamber long-axis view. During one imaging session, each subject underwent two separate DENSE scans to assess inter-scan reproducibility. Each subject was taken out of the scanner and repositioned between the scans. Intra-user, inter-user-same-site, inter-user-different-site, and inter-user-Human-Deep-Learning (DL) comparisons assessed the reproducibility of different users analyzing the same data. Inter-scan comparisons assessed the reproducibility of DENSE from scan to scan. The reproducibility of whole-slice or global Ecc, Ell and Err, torsion, and segmental Ecc were quantified using Bland–Altman analysis, the coefficient of variation (CV), and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). CV was considered excellent for CV ≤ 10%, good for 10% 40. ICC values were considered excellent for ICC > 0.74, good for ICC 0.6 Results Based on CV and ICC, segmental Ecc provided excellent intra-user, inter-user-same-site, inter-user-different-site, inter-user-Human-DL reproducibility and good–excellent inter-scan reproducibility. Whole-slice Ecc and global Ell provided excellent intra-user, inter-user-same-site, inter-user-different-site, inter-user-Human-DL and inter-scan reproducibility. The reproducibility of torsion was good–excellent for all comparisons. For whole-slice Err, CV was in the fair-good range, and ICC was in the good–excellent range. Conclusions Multicenter data show that 3 T CMR DENSE provides highly reproducible whole-slice and segmental Ecc, global Ell, and torsion measurements in healthy subjects and heart disease patients.

Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text., Background: Inflammation is a key factor of myocardial damage in reperfused ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction. We hypothesized that colchicine, a potent anti-inflammatory agent, may reduce infarct size (IS) and left ventricular (LV) remodeling at the acute phase of ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction. Methods: In this double-blind multicenter trial, we randomly assigned patients admitted for a first episode of ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction referred for primary percutaneous coronary intervention to receive oral colchicine (2-mg loading dose followed by 0.5 mg twice a day) or matching placebo from admission to day 5. The primary efficacy outcome was IS determined by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging at 5 days. The relative LV end-diastolic volume change at 3 months and IS at 3 months assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging were among the secondary outcomes. Results: We enrolled 192 patients, 101 in the colchicine group and 91 in the control group. At 5 days, the gadolinium enhancement–defined IS did not differ between the colchicine and placebo groups with a mean of 26 interquartile range (IQR) [16–44] versus 28.4 IQR [14–40] g of LV mass, respectively (P=0.87). At 3 months follow-up, there was no significant difference in LV remodeling between the colchicine and placebo groups with a +2.4% (IQR, –8.3% to 11.1%) versus –1.1% (IQR, –8.0% to 9.9%) change in LV end-diastolic volume (P=0.49). Infarct size at 3 months was also not significantly different between the colchicine and placebo groups (17 IQR [10–28] versus 18 IQR [10–27] g of LV mass, respectively; P=0.92). The incidence of gastrointestinal adverse events during the treatment period was greater with colchicine than with placebo (34% versus 11%, respectively; P=0.0002). Conclusions: In this randomized, placebo-controlled trial, oral administration of high-dose colchicine at the time of reperfusion and for 5 days did not reduce IS assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.

Among imaging techniques, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is one of the most versatile, capable of producing not only morphological but also quantitative and functional data. Due to its non-irradiative nature, it allows in particular temporal and longitudinal studies. The optimal exploitation of all these potentialities nevertheless requires constructing and optimizing an automatic framework for image processing and analysis. The image segmentation is a fundamental step providing the separation of anatomical structures into individual regions. The massive production of the available image data and the multiplication and complexity of the anatomical structures to be by-passed makes manual segmentation obsolete due to the time required and the lack of motivation concerning the task. It is, therefore, necessary to implement suitable automatic segmentation methods.This thesis work was based on the questions of the MUST research project, whose objective was to help understand the effect of ultra-endurance on the body and its impact on the muscular level in particular. The researchers at the CREATIS laboratory chose to conduct this study on the mountain ultra-marathon, long considered the most extreme event in the world: the Tor des Géants. This study notably used a mobile MRI equipped with advanced imaging techniques to study the longitudinal variations during a supra-physiological effort. In order to study the evolution of inflammation and muscle functional parameters at the quadriceps level, our thesis studies and improves automatic segmentation methods based on supervised approaches. Our objective is to provide a clinically applicable method to segment the quadriceps muscle heads as precisely as possible in longitudinal and requiring as little manual segmentation as possible for the learning phase.With this objective, we first explore and apply multi-atlas approaches for quadriceps segmentation. Our contributions allow us to obtain quality segmentations on a large part of our dataset. However, in order to have a faster and more robust approach, we then oriented our work towards deep learning approaches. In this methodological context, our two main contributions are i) the proposal of a segmentation correction step based on machine learning and ii) the proposal of data augmentation strategies to optimize the learning of U-Net type networks, in particular, a strategy based on morphological resemblance evaluated thanks to an original measurement. This morphology measurement also proved to be very efficient for selecting atlases for the multi-atlas segmentation approach. Finally, we show that the proposed approaches can be generalized to other muscle segmentation problems in MRI and allow longitudinal and localized statistical studies.Our work shows that, even if the quantity of annotated data is crucial in supervised learning, we must also pay attention to our database's morphological diversity, which eventually reduces computation time and increases the precision and robustness of the segmentation methods., Parmi les techniques d’imagerie, l'imagerie par résonance magnétique (IRM) est l’une des techniques d'imagerie les plus versatiles, capable de produire des données morphologiques mais également quantitatives et fonctionnelles. De par son caractère non-irradiant, elle permet en particulier les études temporelles et longitudinales. L’exploitation optimale de toutes ces potentialités requiert néanmoins la construction et l’optimisation de séquences de processus automatiques de traitements et d'analyses des images. L’étage de segmentation des images est une étape fondamentale garantissant la précision de l’exploitation des données, en permettant la séparation des structures anatomiques en différentes régions. La production massive des données image disponibles et la multiplication et complexité des structures anatomiques à contourer, rend caduque une segmentation manuelle en raison de la durée requise et la démotivation au regard de la tâche. Dès lors, il est nécessaire de mettre en place des méthodes de segmentation automatique adaptées.Ce travail de thèse s’est nourri des problématiques du projet de recherche MUST dont l’objectif a été d’aider à comprendre l’effet de l’ultra-endurance sur l’organisme et son impact au niveau notamment musculaire. L’équipe de chercheurs du laboratoire CREATIS a choisi de mener cette étude sur l’Ultramarathon de Montagne longtemps considérée comme l’épreuve la plus extrême au monde : le Tor des Géants. Cette étude a notamment utilisé une IRM mobile dotées de techniques d’imagerie avancées pour étudier les variations longitudinales survenant lors d’un effort supra-physiologique. Afin d'étudier l'évolution de l'inflammation et de paramètres fonctionnels musculaires au niveau des quadriceps, notre thèse étudie et améliore les méthodes de segmentation automatique basées sur des approches supervisées. Notre objectif est de fournir une méthode cliniquement applicable permettant de segmenter les chefs musculaires des quadriceps aussi précisément que possible en longitudinal, et nécessitant le moins possible de segmentations manuelles pour la phase d'apprentissage. A cet effet, nous explorons et appliquons dans un premier temps les approches multi-atlas pour la segmentation des quadriceps. Nos contributions permettent d'obtenir des segmentations de qualité sur une grande partie de la base de données. Cependant, afin de disposer d'une approche plus rapide et plus robuste, nous avons secondairement orienté nos travaux vers les approches de deep learning. Dans ce contexte méthodologique, nos deux contributions principales sont i) la proposition d'une étape de correction des segmentations basée sur un apprentissage machine, et ii) la proposition de stratégies d'augmentation de données pour optimiser l'apprentissage de réseaux de type U-Net, notamment une stratégie basée sur la ressemblance morphologique qui est évaluée grâce à une mesure originale. Cette mesure de la morphologie s'est aussi révélée très efficace pour sélectionner les atlas pour l'approche de segmentation multi-atlas. Enfin, nous montrons que les approches proposées se généralisent à d'autres problématiques de segmentation musculaires en IRM et permettent aussi des études statistiques longitudinales et localisées.Notre travail met en évidence que, même si la quantité de données annotées est essentielle dans l'apprentissage supervisé, nous devons également prêter attention à la diversité morphologique de notre base de données, ce qui permet de réduire le temps de calcul et d'augmenter la précision ainsi que la robustesse des méthodes de segmentation.}
