Overview
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) may be beneficial when echocardiography findings are inconclusive, particularly before tricuspid valve surgery.[1]
Cardiac MRI
- Cardiac MRI is useful in evaluating the structure and function of the right atrium and right ventricle as well as the severity of the tricuspid regurgitation, especially when echocardiography is inconclusive.
- Findings on MRI suggestive of/diagnostic of tricuspid regurgitation include:[2][3]
- Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) helps in giving the quantitative assessment of tricuspid regurgitant volume
- Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) helps in estimation of regurgitant fraction
- Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) helps in estimation of RV volumes and ejection fraction
- Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) helps in evaluation of associated left ventricle and mitral disease

"1. CMR or real-time 3-dimensional echocardiography may be considered for assessment of RV systolic function and systolic and diastolic volumes in patients with severe TR (stages C and D) and suboptimal 2-dimensional echocardiograms. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
