The reliability and reliable indexes of q ua ntitative assessment of coronary flow reserve (CFR) by using time intensity cur ve (TIC) via myocardial contrast echocardiography were investigated. The TIC var iables were obtained by employing acoustic densitometry (AD) technique before an d after acetylcholine (Ach) injection in 12 dogs. Meanwhile, the correlation be tween these variables and CFR was analyzed. Among the variables derived from TIC , peak intensity (PI), area under the curve (AUC) and descending slope (DS) were increased significantly ( P <0.05) with the increase of coronary blood flow a fter Ach injection. Conversely, time to peak (TP), half time of descent (HT) , and mean transit time (MTT) were decreased remarkably ( P <0.0001). Th e P I and AUC ratios from post to pre Ach injection were strongly associated with CFR with the correlation coefficient (r) being 0.8366 and 0.8824, respectively. It is reliable by using the variables derived from TIC with myocardial contrast echocardiography to quantitatively evaluate regional myocardial CFR. The PI an d AUC ratios from post to pre Ach injection are the reliable indexes for quan titative assessment of CFR.
