Abstract

Echocardiography may be comparable to cardiac magnetic resonance imaging for timing of pulmonary valve replacement. Characterization of Favorable Right Ventricular Dimensions for Optimal Reverse Remodeling following Pulmonary Valve ReplacementSeminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular SurgeryPreview: We sought to couple current cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) thresholds of right ventricular (RV) size and function with longitudinal trajectories of RV recovery, after pulmonary valve replacement (PVR). We aimed to identify optimal timing of PVR and couple CMR-based metrics with contemporaneous echocardiographic metrics. Full-Text PDF
