By Bruno Kastler
MRI is a non-invasive and non-ionizing imaging modality that's ideally suited for the analysis and follow-up of either pediatric and grownup congenital middle sickness. It offers a wide box of view and has the original skill to depict advanced cardiac and vascular anatomy and to degree cardiac functionality and circulate inside of one exam. MRI is definitely the right supplement to echocardiography at any time when the data supplied by means of the latter is restricted.
This ebook has been conceived as a self-teaching handbook that may help certified radiologists, cardiologists, and pediatricians, in addition to these in education. it truly is richly illustrated with various photographs and drawings that hide all ordinary and most unique anomalies. The significant writer, Professor Bruno Kastler, is head of radiology at Besançon college sanatorium, France and is board qualified in either radiology and cardiology.

Also known as the bicuspid valve, it is composed of two quadrilateral leaflets (or cups), the anterior leaflet and the posterior leaflet, with no insertion on the interventricular septum. 8 and see Chap. 22c). The absence of insertion of the mitral valve onto the septum and the presence of two papillary muscles (anterolateral and posteromedian) on the free wall are characteristic of the left ventricle. 7 and atlas A9 and 10). This difference of thickness (and size), less marked at birth due to the fetal “balanced” right-left circulation, gradually increases, so that the heart progressively takes on the appearance of an “adult” heart with a dominant “systemic” left ventricle.
