Originally published20 Jan 2004https://doi.org/10.1161/01.CIR.0000111582.02736.CDCirculation. 2004;109:146–149The microcirculation is generally defined as vessels 30 μm in diameter), vascular resistance is the major determinant of total resistance, with viscosity playing a minor role. In vessels <30 μm in diameter, however, viscosity assumes a greater role, with relative effective viscosity increasing 6- to 7-fold at the level of the capillaries.12 Because the effect of vascular resistance and viscosity are multiplicative, small changes in viscosity produce a large difference in total resistance. Furthermore, it has also been demonstrated that unlike glass tubes, resistance in the same-sized capillaries is almost 2-fold higher for blood than isotonic fluid probably because of the interaction between the vessel lining and blood components.12A number of studies have shown an increase in blood viscosity with hyperlipoproteinemia.13–16 A strong positive correlation has been noted between increased blood viscosity and CAD.17 Several studies have shown abnormal CBF reserve even in patients with CAD risk factors in the absence of CAD on angiography. Furthermore, it has been shown that the use of lipid-lowering drugs (especially statins) can normalize abnormal CBF reserve without affecting coronary artery morphology.18 Reduced CBF reserve associated with hyperlipoproteinemia may lead to repeated episodes of exercise-induced ischemia, which may ultimately have a detrimental effect on microvascular and myocyte integrity.19 Similar effects could occur from hyperglycemia and may explain the higher cardiac morbidity in patients with uncontrolled diabetes. Thus, it in terms myocardial ischemia from microvascular abnormalities, the effect of whole blood viscosity and its association with RBC charge, deformability, and electrophoretic mobility is very important.When a noncritical stenosis is present, its resistance is offset by a decrease in arteriolar resistance due to autoregulation, with the result that total vascular resistance remains unchanged, as does resting CBF. Now, when hyperemia is induced, although the total myocardial vascular resistance decreases compared with the resting state without stenosis, it increases compared with the nonhyperemic state with stenosis. During hyperemia, arteriolar and venular resistances are already minimal, so the increase in resistance occurs mostly from an increase in capillary resistance due to capillary derecruitment in an effort to keep the capillary hydrostatic pressure from rising. Thus, the major reason for attenuation of CBF reserve caused by a stenosis is also capillaries rather than the stenosis itself (Figure 4).10 The same mechanism operates even during dobutamine infusion, although the relative MBV of the entire myocardium increases because of the increase in myocardial oxygen demand and functional capillary recruitment.20Capillary derecruitment combined with a lesser increase in RBC velocity forms the basis for stenosis detection in CAD. During hyperemia, the normal myocardium fills very fast after microbubble destruction (1 to 1.5 seconds), while in regions sub served by stenoses, the rate of filling is slower depending on the severity of stenosis. The filling abnormalities are frequently seen to be more marked in the endocardium and, in the case of milder stenoses, may be localized only within the endocardium.21 It is for this reason that MCE has been shown to be more sensitive than single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) for the detection of coronary stenoses in patients with normal regional function and only moderate CAD.22 Because of its poorer spatial resolution (order of magnitude) compared with MCE, SPECT cannot detect defects located only in the endocardium. MCE is also superior in identifying multivessel CAD because each myocardial segment at stress is compared with itself at rest (Figure 5), whereas on SPECT the comparison is across segments, so that left main or "balanced" multivessel CAD can be missed. Figure 5 is an example in which a reversible defect was seen both by MCE and SPECT in a patient with a moderate mid-left anterior descending artery stenosis.
