title: [Research advances of MDCT-MR in valvular heart disease].
abstract: This paper aims to analyze the application of MDCT (multi-detector computed tomography) and MRI in valvular heart diseases and to assess the diagnostic value of using such two techniques, including routine CT, cine CT, maximum intensity projection (MIP), multilpe planar reconstruction (MPR), volume rendering technique (VRT), and cine MRI.
