CT and MRI
Inferior displacement of tricuspid valve leaflets with enlargement of the right atrium and enlargement and dysfunction of the right ventricle.
Cardiac catheterization and hemodynamics
a) RA pressure usually not increased due to the fact that the RA is enlarged and compliant.
b) Normal RV pressures unless significant TR is present.
c) PA pressures are normal or slightly decreased due to TR and a large right-to-left shunt.
d) An ASD may be present
