Imaging essentials for mitral valve interventions: pre, peri & post-procedure

PCR Perspectives

Summary

Marta Sitges, Victoria Delgado and Edwin Ho discuss imaging essentials for mitral interventions. They start with an analysis of the most important pre-procedural imaging modalities, reflecting on the role of both TOE and TEE. As for the intra-procedural imaging, they focus on the key skills that need to be mastered and the main views to be used. They then go on to explain how to assess whether the results are sufficient, and what need to be checked on discharge.

Finally, they exchange views on the best follow-up imaging plan for patients with mitral disease.
