==Diagnosis==


Echocardiography is the primary method to diagnose a divided atrium. The transthoracic two dimensional echocardiography is usually aided by transesophageal echocardiogram for further evaluation. MRI provides a better spatial resolution and tissue contrast as compared to echocardiogram. <ref>[Masui et al. Abnormalities of the Pulmonary Veins: Evaluation with MR imaging and comparison with cardiac angiography and echocardiography. Radiology 1991; 181:645]</ref>    MRI is said to have higher sensitivity than echocardiogram and angiography.
