Résumé

A prospective, multi-centre study to evaluate concordance of morphologic lung MRI and CT in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) phenotyping for airway disease and emphysema. A total of 601 participants with COPD from 15 sites underwent same-day morpho-functional chest MRI and paired inspiratory-expiratory CT. Two readers systematically scored bronchial wall thickening, bronchiectasis, centrilobular nodules, air trapping and lung parenchyma defects in each lung lobe and determined COPD phenotype. A third reader acted as adjudicator to establish consensus. Inter-modality and inter-reader agreement were assessed using Cohen's kappa (im-κ and ir-κ). The mean combined MRI score for bronchiectasis/bronchial wall thickening was 4.5/12 (CT scores, 2.2/12 for bronchiectasis and 6/12 for bronchial wall thickening; im-κ, 0.04-0.3). Expiratory right/left bronchial collapse was observed in 51 and 47/583 on MRI (62 and 57/599 on CT; im-κ, 0.49-0.52). Markers of small airways disease on MRI were 0.15/12 for centrilobular nodules (CT, 0.34/12), 0.94/12 for air trapping (CT, 0.9/12) and 7.6/12 for perfusion deficits (CT, 0.37/12 for mosaic attenuation; im-κ, 0.1-0.41). The mean lung defect score on MRI was 1.3/12 (CT emphysema score, 5.8/24; im-κ, 0.18-0.26). Airway-/emphysema/mixed COPD phenotypes were assigned in 370, 218 and 10 of 583 cases on MRI (347, 218 and 34 of 599 cases on CT; im-κ, 0.63). For all examined features, inter-reader agreement on MRI was lower than on CT. Concordance of MRI and CT for phenotyping of COPD in a multi-centre setting was substantial with variable inter-modality and inter-reader concordance for single diagnostic key features. MRI of lung morphology may well serve as a radiation-free imaging modality for COPD in scientific and clinical settings, given that its potential and limitations as shown here are carefully considered. • In a multi-centre setting, MRI and CT showed substantial concordance for phenotyping of COPD (airway-/emphysema-/mixed-type). • Individual features of COPD demonstrated variable inter-modality concordance with features of pulmonary hypertension showing the highest and bronchiectasis showing the lowest concordance. • For all single features of COPD, inter-reader agreement was lower on MRI than on CT.
