Validation of the Efficacy of the Tool GIMIAS® for the Assessment of Left Atrial Fibrosis in a Group of Healthy Volunteers (RESTORE-HV)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to validate the technique for the detection of left atrial fibrosis through segmentation of endocardial and epicardium landmarks of the images obtained with 3 Tgadobutrol-enhanced magnetic resonance with the software GIMIAS® in a cohort of healthy volunteers, without atrial fibrillation or known cardiovascular risk factors.

Phase 1 |
Detailed Description
3D reconstructions obtained by GIMIAS® will be evaluated. Processing images will be carried out by two independent operators, and will calculate the kappa interobserver agreement .
Subsequently, the processed images are compared with images previously obtained in 10 patients with persistent atrial fibrillation adjusted for sex and age. A qualitative visual comparison will be made.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Proportion of subjects with contrast enhancement in left atrium, measured through the reconstruction and processing of late enhancement magnetic resonance images with GIMIAS. [Baseline]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Adverse events [1 week after intervention]
- Interobserver variability in the generation of segmented images of left atrium, measured through the kappa index. [1 week after intervention]
