Brief Summary:
stress cMRI with Dobutamine stress agent (stress cMRI), represent the combination of two orders of exams routinely performed (cMRI and stress diagnostic series of exams) without additional risk for the patient, but with the advantage of non-invasiveness and lack of radiation, and less laborious for the participants
Detailed Description:
Surgical revascularization or angioplasty are therapeutic options for coronary lesions even in infants and children. Pharmacological stress induced cMRI could provide crucial information such as coronary arteries origin and proximal pathway, wall motion abnormalities, myocardial perfusion and viability, enabling accurate monitoring of symptomatic and non-pediatric patients. Investigators would build a prospective series of stress cMRI exams in pediatric symptomatic and non-patients, with suspected or previously diagnosed coronary artery disease. Investigators would put the results in comparison with ECG, Exercise test, stress Cardiac Ultrasound and Angiography. At the end of the study, if supported by results, the aim is to replace the current diagnostic procedure (ECG, Exercise test, stress Cardiac Ultrasound and Angiography) which need long hospitalization, expose the patient to radiation dose, is uncomfortable for the patient, and is characterized by a non-negligible risk due to invasive procedure, with a single exam (stress cMRI) which is dose-free, minimal risk related, without hospitalization, and less expensive for National Care System.
