INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) including 4D flow is used before percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI). As PPVI is limited by the size of the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT), accurate sizing is needed to plan the intervention. The aim of this study was to compare different MRI modalities and invasive angiography to balloon sizing of RVOT.

METHODS: Single-center prospective study of patients who underwent PPVI for isolated pulmonary regurgitation assessed by 4D flow MRI, 3D steady-state free precession/gradient echo (3D SSFP/GRE) and contrast magnetic resonance angiography. Balloon sizing was considered as the reference.

RESULTS: A total of 23 adults were included (mean age, 38.4±12.5 years). Eighteen patients underwent successful primary PPVI. The average of the narrowest RVOT diameter was 25.4±4.3 mm by balloon sizing. Compared to balloon sizing, RVOT diameters were better correlated when estimated by systolic 4D flow MRI (r=0.89, P<.001) than by diastolic 4D flow MRI (r=0.71, P <.001), 3D contrast magnetic resonance angiography (r=0.73; P <.001) and 3D SSFP/GRE (r=0.50; P=.04) and was not significantly correlated when estimated by 2D in diastole and systole. The mean difference between systolic 4D flow MRI and balloon sizing was 0.2 mm (95%CI, -3.5 to 3.9 mm), whereas it was wider with other techniques.

CONCLUSIONS: Beyond the quantification of pulmonary valve regurgitation, 4D flow allows accurate estimation of RVOT diameters, especially in systole, which is fundamental before planning PPVI.
