Purpose Of Review:
The goal of this review is to cover the epidemiology of tricuspid regurgitation (TR), anatomy of the tricuspid valve (TV), and the mechanisms and modern treatment of TR. The focus will be on the role of echocardiography, cardiac CT, and MRI to determine the mechanism, severity, and management strategies of TR.
Recent Findings:
The evaluation and management of TR is a rapidly growing field with significant advances in both imaging and interventions. Important advances have been made to understand TV anatomy and physiology in 3D echo, CT, and MRI. Additional understanding of the abnormal outcomes in both primary TR and secondary TR have been appreciated. Multiple transcatheter devices have reached the stage of early trials in high surgical risk cohorts with favorable initial findings. TR is a significant cardiovascular problem and vastly undertreated in the present era. There has been tremendous growth in knowledge of mechanisms of TR, its prognostic implications, timing of intervention, and development of novel treatment strategies. Multimodality imaging plays a key role in evaluation and treatment of this condition.
