目的探讨磁共振弥散张量成像(diffusion tensor imaging,DTI)联合磁共振波谱成像(magnetic resonance spectroscopy,MRS)对于缺血性脑小血管疾病(small vessel disease,SVD)的影像评估价值。材料与方法对42例缺血性SVD患者进行常规MRI、DTI和MRS扫描,测量病灶及健侧对称正常脑白质区域的平均弥散系数(average diffusion coefficient,DCavg)值、各向异性分数(fractional anisotropy,FA)值,测量病灶及其周围正常脑白质区域的N-乙酰天门冬氨酸(N-acetyl aspartic acid,NAA)、胆碱(choline,Cho)、肌酸(creatine,Cr)、肌醇(myo-inositol,MI)等生化代谢物的浓度值,并计算NAA/Cho、NAA/Cr、Cho/Cr、MI/Cr的比值。将42例SVD患者的缺血性病灶按照影像学显示分组,并对各组上述测量指标进行统计学分析。结果选取42例缺血性SVD患者的42个病灶并分成慢性缺血组(30例)和慢性期梗死灶组(12例)。SVD病灶的DCavg值和FA值分别较健侧镜像区正常脑白质的增高和降低(P<0.01),而两组间SVD病灶的DCavg值和FA值差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。SVD病灶的NAA、Cho和Cr的均数都小于周围正常白质(P<0.01),而两组间的各项MRS代谢值差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。Pearson相关性分析,正常脑白质的DCavg值与FA值(r=-0.383,P=0.012)呈负相关,FA值与NAA/Cho (r=0.420,P=0.006)、NAA/Cr (r=0.382,P=0.012)之间均呈正相关,而在SVD病灶组无上述相关性。Spearman相关分析,SVD病灶组的DCavg与高血压呈正相关(r=0.338,P=0.029)。结论对于缺血性SVD,DCavg、FA、NAA、Cho和Cr等检测指标能够共同反映神经髓鞘结构的微观变化及其功能的破坏,联合应用DTI和MRS成像技术对缺血性SVD疾病进行研究,有助于其临床诊断及病理机制的研究。
弥散张量成像;磁共振波谱;脑小血管疾病;磁共振成像
在2013年的中国脑卒中大会上,有报道指出脑血管病已居于中国居民死亡原因第一位,而由脑小血管疾病(small vessel disease,SVD)引起的脑血管病变约占到1/3[1-2]。SVD是指由直径小于400μm的脑小血管病变导致的疾病,包括多发腔隙性脑梗(multiple lacunar infarction,MLI)、皮质下动脉硬化性脑病(subcortical arteriosclerotic encephalopathy,SAE)、脑白质疏松症(leucoaraiosis,LA)等[3-4]。近年来国内外多项研究表明[5-9],SVD与血管性认知障碍、血管性痴呆、脑卒中、下肢功能障碍、抑郁症等疾病有着密切关系。近年来,对于SVD的危险因素、病理机制等研究逐渐增多,其中功能磁共振扫描技术在SVD的研究中得到广泛应用。本研究主要针对脑SVD中的缺血性病变,运用磁共振弥散张量成像(diffusion tensor imaging,DTI)联合磁共振波谱成像(magnetic resonance spectroscopy,MRS)对其临床诊断及病理变化进行研究和探讨。

3 讨论
SVD是指由脑的小血管及微血管(直径<400μm)病变而引起的一组疾病[10],它们临床表现相似、影像表现相近[11]。近10多年来,众多研究发现SVD与脑卒中、认知障碍、血管性痴呆、慢性肾脏疾病以及抑郁症等有着密切关系[7,12],从而引起了广泛关注及学者们的研究兴趣。随着功能磁共振技术的发展,MRI检查特别是DTI和MRS技术被越来越多地运用到对SVD的临床诊断以及病理机制的研究中[13-15]。
DTI成像技术是利用组织中水分子在人体组织中扩散运动存在的各向异性来探究组织超微结构的成像方法。常用的测量参数是平均弥散系数和部分FA,分别反映的是水分子扩散的能力和神经髓鞘的完整性、纤维致密性及平行性,即白质纤维束的完整程度。FA值越大,神经传导功能便越强。Van Norden等[16-17]认为MD值可作为衡量SVD进展的重要指标,且DCavg值和FA值与认知能力有着较强相关性,特别是FA值可被看作较T2WI更能反映认知能力的指标。
MRS是一种分子水平的成像,可以无创性地通过MRS扫描来了解人体一定体积的组织中化学物质的含量和浓度。本次研究所采集的检测指标是脑组织1H-MRS中较为常用的检测指标。NAA的含量可以反映成熟神经元的数量和功能状态,NAA较少意味着神经元发生不可逆转损伤。Cho是髓鞘形成、细胞代谢和胶质增生的指标,也是细胞膜的重要组成成分,反映了细胞膜磷脂代谢的情况,Cho增高说明细胞膜更新加快,细胞密度增大。Cr在脑组织中分布均匀且在各病理状态下数值相对稳定,因此常被用作比较其他代谢物浓度变化的参考值。NAA/Cr、Cho/Cr比值常作为反映神经元功能的定量指标,可判断神经元及髓鞘的完整性和损伤程度。MI则被认为是神经胶质的标志物[18]。
本研究中两组缺血性SVD病灶的DCavg值较健侧正常脑白质升高,而FA值则降低,MRS也检测到病灶区代谢物NAA、Cho和Cr较正常脑白质减低,这均提示两组SVD病灶都存在神经髓鞘的破坏,白质纤维束结构不完整,因此髓鞘对水分子垂直于神经纤维束方向上的运动限制减小,水分子弥散速度加快,这与相关文献报道一致[13,15]。而慢性缺血组和慢性期梗死灶组病灶的DCavg值和FA值之间差异没有统计学意义,同样,两组的MRS各代谢物数值及代谢物比值之间差异无统计学意义,原因可能有以下几个方面:(1)慢性缺血灶和慢性期梗死灶在病理变化上无明显差别或存在交叉病理变化;(2) DCavg值、FA值、NAA值及其他代谢物值只能反映神经髓鞘结构遭到破坏,结构不完整,而与结构破坏的程度无关[19];(3)可能与本研究中所选样本个体差异及抽样误差有关。
本研究中还发现缺血性SVD病灶的DCavg值与高血压因素呈正相关,而正常脑白质的DCavg与高血压无相关性,可能提示高血压对缺血性SVD病灶病理变化有影响。其次,正常脑白质区的DCavg值与FA值呈负相关,且FA值与NAA/Ch和NAA/Cr呈正相关,然而SVD病灶的上述指标并无明显相关性,提示上述DTI及MRS检测指标之间的相关性可以为SVD的诊断提供影像学依据,但其准确性还有待进一步研究。
综上所述,磁共振DTI和MRS两种功能成像技术分别从水分子弥散变化及组织代谢两个方面反映了脑白质神经纤维髓鞘结构的病理变化,对于缺血性SVD在临床诊断及病理机制研究等方面较传统MRI检查有着明显的优越性。

Objective:To investigate the medical imaging evaluative value of diffusion tensor imaging combined with magnetic resonance spectroscopy in ischemic cerebral small vessel disease.Materials and Methods:Forty-two cases of ischemic SVD were imaged with conventional MRI, DTI and MRS. Average diffusion coefficient (DCavg) and fractional anisotropy (FA) were measured symmetrically,which in the lesion regions and the contralateral normal white matter area. Then the absolute metabolite concentrations of N-acetylaspartate (NAA), total cholines (Cho),total creatines (Cr) and myo-inositol (MI) in SVD lesion regions and the normal white matter regions around the lesions were detected, and the ratios of NAA/Cho, NAA/Cr, Cho/Cr, MI/Cr were calculated. To divide the 42 lesions of ischemic SVD into groups according to the imaging display, all the indexes above mentioned of each group were statistically analyzed.Results:The 42 lesions of ischemic SVD were divided into chronic ischemic focus group (30 cases) and chronic lacunar infarction group (12 cases). The DCavg values of SVD lesions significantly raised compared with those of the contralateral normal white matter area(P<0.01), while the FA values of SVD lesions reduced (P<0.01). Neither DCavg nor FA values between chronic ischemic focus group and chronic lacunar infractions group were significantly different (P>0.05). The mean values of NAA, Cho and Cr of the SVD lesions were all less than those of the normal white matter regions around the lesions (P<0.01), but there was no significant difference of MRS metabolic values between chronic ischemic focus group and chronic lacunar infarctions group (P>0.05).Pearsoncorrelation analysis showed that there was a negative correlation between DCavg value and FA (r=-0.383,P=0.012) in normal white matter, the FA value was positively correlated with NAA/Cho (r=0.420,P=0.006), NAA/Cr (r=0.382,P=0.012),but there was no correlation in the SVD lesions. The DCavg value was actively associated with hypertension in SVD lesions bySpearmancorrelation analysis (r=0.338,P=0.029).Conclusion:For the ischemic SVD, the values of DCavg, FA, NAA, Cho and Cr can reflect the micro variations and the functional damages of nerve neurolemma. Combined application of DTI and MRS could have a great contribution to clinical diagnose and pathological mechanism in ischemic SVD.
