Angiographic, echocardiographic, and three-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging of extracardiac conduits in congenital heart disease.
Visualization of extracardiac conduits was evaluated comparing angiography, echocardiography, and magnetic resonance imaging with 3-dimensional reconstructions. Magnetic resonance imaging afforded visualization of the conduit in its entirety in a higher percentage of patients than the other 2 imaging modalities.
