Multimodality Imaging of Heart Valve Disease
Unidentified heart valve disease is associated with a significant morbidity and mortality. It has therefore become important to accurately identify, assess and monitor patients with this condition in order that appropriate and timely intervention can occur. Although echocardiography has emerged as the predominant imaging modality for this purpose, recent advances in cardiac magnetic resonance a...
متن کاملMultimodality imaging in heart valve disease.
In patients with heart valve disease, echocardiography is the mainstay for diagnosis, assessment and serial surveillance. However, other modalities, notably cardiac MRI and CT, are used if echocardiographic imaging is suboptimal but can also give complementary information to improve assessment of the valve lesion and cardiac compensation to aid the timing of surgery and determine risk. This sta...

متن کاملUnroofed Coronary Sinus: Multimodality Imaging of Geriatric Congenital Heart Disease
An 84-year-old woman with hypertension presented to our medical center with dyspnea and lower extremity edema. Electrocardiography demonstrated atrial fibrillation with a rapid ventricular response. Transthoracic echocardiography color Doppler showed abnormal flow in the region of the interatrial septum (Fig. 1A). Transesophageal echocardiography demonstrated a defect adjacent to the interatria...
متن کاملMultimodality imaging in transcatheter aortic valve replacement.
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement is a major advance that has dramatically changed our approach to elderly patients with severe aortic stenosis. This advance has been made possible by innovative device and delivery improvements, coupled with rapid developments in multimodality imaging. Multimodality imaging draws from multiple imaging fields and is central to patient evaluation and treatme...
