Isolated Subvalvular Pulmonary Stenosis: Depiction at Whole Heart Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Abstract: Isolated subvalvular pulmonary stenosis is a rare condition and its morphological evaluation is obscure. Whole heart magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a new, totally non-invasive technique which allows three-dimensional comprehension of the cardiac structure. We describe a patient with isolated subvalvular pulmonary stenosis, in whom whole heart MRI was useful to detect and evaluate the right ventricular outflow obstruction.

“…The resulting geometric deviations allow a good qualitative and quantitative representation of WSS and WSSG s patterns for both techniques. Both techniques are used now in the clinical practice for diagnosis of different cardiac diseases [38][39][40]. These diagnosed changes in the geometry of cardiac vessels cause alterations in the WSS distributions.…”

“…On provisional diagnosis of DCRV, whole heart MRI was performed. Whole heart MRI was performed by an Intera Achieva (1.5 T, Philips Medical Systems, Netherlands) using a free-breathing, three-dimensional navigator technique [3]. After the completion of data acquisition for whole heart MRI, breath-hold cine MRI was performed.…”
