Abstract

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has an emerging role in aortic valve disease evaluation (AVD), becoming an all-in-one technique. CMR evaluation of the anatomy and flow through the aortic valve has a higher reproducibility than echocardiography. Its unique ability of in-vivo myocardial tissue characterization, significantly improves the risk stratification and management of patients. In addition, CMR is equivalent to cardiac computed tomography angiography for trans-aortic valvular implantation and surgical aortic valve replacement planning; on the other hand, its role in the evaluation of ventricular function improving and post-treatment complications is undisputed. This review encompasses the existing literature regarding the role of CMR in AVD, exploring all the aspects of the disease, from diagnosis to prognosis.
