Do advanced echocardiographic RV functional parameters correlate with CMR-RVEF in adult congenital heart disease patients?
While advanced echocardiographic RV parameters correlate moderately with CMR-RVEF in ACHD patients, they are not directly interchangeable due to significant differences.
In ACHD patients, advanced echocardiographic RV functional parameters are moderately correlated with CMR-RVEF, although significant differences exist between indices measurable by both modalities.
Bowen et al. (Fri,) studied this question.
