The Added Value of 4D ‐Flow CMR : Identifying Aortic Regurgitation as the Culprit for Severe Cardiomyopathy

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Hemodynamically significant aortic regurgitation (AR) may be underestimated by standard echocardiography and 2D phase-contrast CMR, particularly in patients with heart rate variability. This case highlights the additive role of 4D-flow CMR in reclassifying AR severity, thereby identifying a significant pathology and helping to guide timely intervention.
