Résumé

The assessment of severity of aortic regurgitation (AR) by transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) remains challenging in routine practice. Contemporary guidelines recommend cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) in patients with significant disease and suboptimal TTE images. The objective of this study was to assess the role of CMR in the evaluation of severity of AR and to compare both modalities in the quantification of regurgitation and left ventricular volumes.
