Purpose: To evaluate in a proof-of-concept study the feasibility of Simultaneous Noncontrast Angiography and intraPlaque hemorrhage (SNAP) imaging as a clinical magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) technique for measuring carotid stenosis. There is a growing interest in detecting intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH) during the clinical management of carotid disease, yet luminal stenosis has remained indispensable during clinical decision-making. SNAP imaging has been proposed as a novel IPH imaging technique that provides carotid MRA with no added scan time. Flowing blood shows negative signal on SNAP because of phase-sensitive inversion recovery. Materials and Methods: In all, 58 asymptomatic subjects with 16-79% stenosis on ultrasound were scanned at 3T by SNAP with 0.8mm isotropic resolution and 16cm longitudinal coverage. Two readers measured luminal stenosis of bilateral carotid arteries (n=116) on minimum intensity projections of SNAP using the NASCET criteria. In the subset (48 arteries) with contrast-enhanced (CE) MRA available for comparison, luminal stenosis was also measured on maximum intensity projections of CE-MRA. Results: Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) with 95% confidence intervals were 0.94 (0.90-0.96) and 0.93 (0.88-0.96) for intra- and interreader agreement on stenosis measurements, respectively. Corresponding kappas for grading stenosis (0-29%, 30-69%, 70-99%, and 100%) were 0.79 (0.67-0.89) and 0.80 (0.68-0.90). Agreement between SNAP and CE-MRA was high (ICC: 0.95 [0.90-0.98]; kappa: 0.82 [0.71-0.93]). Conclusion: As a dedicated IPH-imaging sequence, SNAP also provided carotid stenosis measurement that showed high intra- and interreader consistency and excellent agreement with CE-MRA. Further comparisons with digital subtraction angiography and other noninvasive techniques are warranted.
