Abstract
Cardiac imaging is the cornerstone of defining the etiology, quantification, and management of mitral regurgitation (MR). This continues to be even more so the case with emerging transcatheter techniques to manage MR. Transthoracic echocardiography remains the first-line imaging modality to assess MR but has limitations. Cardiac MRI(CMR) provides the advantages of quantitative nonvisual estimation, 3D volumetric data, late gadolinium, T1, and extracellular volume measurements to comprehensively assess mitral valvular pathology, cardiac remodeling, and the prognostic impact of therapies. This review describes the superiority, technical aspects and growing evidence behind CMR, and lays the roadmap for the future of CMR in MR.
