Abstract

Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease and imaging plays a key role in diagnosis, pre-operative planning and follow up, with MRI as the gold standard for imaging in these patients despite echocardiography being more widely available. While static MRI sequences are suitable for evaluation of anatomical structures, dynamic imaging is required for volume and flow measurements through valves, chambers, and surgical conduits. Newer techniques with 4D data acquisitions allow for feasible 2D cine reconstruction in desired planes. Ferumoxytol, a blood pool contrast agent with long intravascular half-life, facilitates acquisition of 4D flow and 4D MUSIC (multiphase, steady-state imaging with contrast) sequences, eliminating need for repeated contrast administrations. In this article we review conglomerate of TOF anomalies, their historical and current surgical managements with respective devices, as well as cutting-edge MRI techniques for their evaluation.

期刊介绍： The mission of Clinical Imaging is to publish, in a timely manner, the very best radiology research from the United States and around the world with special attention to the impact of medical imaging on patient care. The journal''s publications cover all imaging modalities, radiology issues related to patients, policy and practice improvements, and clinically-oriented imaging physics and informatics. The journal is a valuable resource for practicing radiologists, radiologists-in-training and other clinicians with an interest in imaging. Papers are carefully peer-reviewed and selected by our experienced subject editors who are leading experts spanning the range of imaging sub-specialties, which include: -Body Imaging- Breast Imaging- Cardiothoracic Imaging- Imaging Physics and Informatics- Molecular Imaging and Nuclear Medicine- Musculoskeletal and Emergency Imaging- Neuroradiology- Practice, Policy & Education- Pediatric Imaging- Vascular and Interventional Radiology
