Correlation of right ventricular ejection fraction and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion in tetralogy of Fallot by magnetic resonance imaging

Abstract: The correlation between right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) by two-dimensional (2-D) echo has been repeatedly validated, but not by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) nor in patients with congenital heart disease. We tested whether TAPSE measurements by MRI correlate with RVEF in surgically repaired tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) patients. TAPSE was measured from systolic displacement of the RV-freewall/tricuspid annular plane junction in the apical 4-cham… Show more

“…The presence of RV regional wall motion abnormalities, ventricular patches, or conduction disturbances may invalidate tricuspid annular peak systolic excursion and RV free wall velocity for systolic RV function in TOF. 302,303 Even without well-established cutoff points for mild and moderate dilation and dysfunction, serial evaluations may offer the ACHD clinician clues to declining ventricular performance or loss of preload reserve, which may lead to a change in management. Real-time 3-dimensional echocardiography is a promising method for measurement of RV volume and function in the ACHD patient and has been validated against MRI.…”

“…14,15 There has been a wide range of correlations between TAPSE and other measures of RV function. Good correlations were obtained comparing TAPSE with RVEF, [16][17][18][19][20] and better correlations were obtained comparing TAPSE with RV fractional area of change 6,12 and global RV strain. 21 Correlations were more modest when compared with RVEF using magnetic resonance imaging.…”
