Key result
Multimodality imaging is essential for patient selection, procedural guidance, and prognosis in tricuspid valve interventions.
Why the study?
With rapid evolution of transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions, comprehensive multimodality imaging is essential for patient selection, procedural guidance, and prognostic stratification, but uncertainties regarding thresholds and standardization remain.
An integrated multimodality imaging approach leveraging echocardiography, CMR, and CT is crucial for optimal patient selection, procedural guidance, and prognostic stratification in tricuspid valve and right ventricular disease.
Supports multimodality imaging in tricuspid interventions; leaves open standardization and prospective outcome validation.
The right ventricle (RV) and tricuspid valve (TV) are important determinants of cardiovascular outcomes. With the rapid evolution of transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions, comprehensive multimodality imaging has become essential for patient selection, procedural guidance, and prognostic stratification. Strain and volumetric parameters enable earlier detection of myocardial dysfunction and refined assessment of patients undergoing transcatheter interventions, although uncertainties regarding thresholds and standardization remain. Echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), and computed tomography (CT) have improved RV phenotyping and understanding of RV–TV interactions. This review synthesizes contemporary evidence regarding imaging assessment of the RV and tricuspid valve, emphasizing the complementary strengths of multimodality imaging and its clinical applications.

Sewanan et al. (2026) conducted a review in Right ventricular dysfunction and tricuspid regurgitation. Multimodality imaging (Echocardiography, CMR, CT) was evaluated. Comprehensive multimodality imaging integrating echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance, and computed tomography is essential for patient selection, procedural guidance, and prognostic stratification in tricuspid valve interventions.
