Prevalence of Mitral Annular Disjunction at Cardiac MRI: Results from a Multicenter Registry Open
Mitral annular disjunction (MAD) was a frequent incidental finding at cardiac MRI examinations performed for various clinical indications; longer MAD length and coexisting bileaflet mitral valve prolapse were associated with a higher preva…

Multimodality Imaging of the Neglected Valve: Role of Echocardiography, Cardiac Magnetic Resonance and Cardiac Computed Tomography in Pulmonary Stenosis and Regurgitation Open
The pulmonary valve (PV) is the least imaged among the heart valves. However, pulmonary regurgitation (PR) and pulmonary stenosis (PS) can occur in a variety of patients ranging from fetuses, newborns (e.g., tetralogy of Fallot) to adults …

Aortic regurgitation: A multimodality approach Open
Aortic regurgitation (AR) is a common valvular pathology. Multimodality noninvasive cardiovascular imaging is routinely used to assess the mechanism of AR, degree, and its hemodynamic impact on the cardiovascular system. Collecting this in…
