Overview
Cardiac MRI is becoming a gold standard in evaluating right heart structure and function.
MRI
Cardiac MRI is becoming a gold standard in evaluating right heart structure and function particularly in the following fields:
- Complex congenital heart anomalies
- Valvular regurgitation quantification
- Inflammatory and infiltrative myocardial disease
- Mediastinal mass impinging on the right chambers
- Planning for a complex surgery or procedure
- Research purposes[1][2]
