Overview

While echocardiography remains the diagnostic imaging modality of choice, cardiac MRI is useful to evaluate tricuspid stenosis when the results of the echocardiography are insufficient.

CMR may be used for assessing individuals with valvular heart disease in which evaluation of valvular stenosis, regurgitation, para- or perivalvular masses, perivalvular complications of infectious processes, or prosthetic valve disease are needed. CMR may be useful in identifying serial changes in LV volumes or mass in patients with valvular dysfunction.
