pubmed:abstractText |
Three different new developments have taken place in the evaluation of congenital heart diseases. First, in the fetal period, intravaginal echocardiography allows earlier diagnosis of significant cardiac abnormalities that could lead to a wanted termination of pregnancy. Second, in adults and children, MR imaging has become a standard imaging modality in complex congenital heart diseases. Moreover MR imaging has become the best noninvasive imaging method in visualization of the great vessels. Finally, in surgery, the intraoperative epicardial echocardiography could improve operation results in the future (solving the regurgitation problem). Postoperatively, MR imaging has become an important diagnostic tool that helps to reduce repeated catheterization and angiography.
