“…Mustard repair (a form of atrial-level redirection repair) involves rerouting of systemic and pulmonary venous flow in the atria with a pericardial baffle. 13 Over time, survivors of the Mustard operation develop arrhythmic 14 and hemodynamic complications. Complications that can be detected by imaging include right ventricular dysfunction, systemic atrioventricular valve regurgitation, right ventricular dilation, subpulmonary stenosis, residual VSD, myocardial enhancement (which may relate to arrhythmic risk), and atrial baffle leak or stenosis.…”

Adult congenital heart disease patients present a unique challenge to the cardiac imager. Patients may present with both acute and chronic manifestations of their complex congenital heart disease and also require surveillance for sequelae of their medical and surgical interventions. Multimodality imaging is often required to clarify their anatomy and physiology. Radiation dose is of particular concern in these patients with lifelong imaging needs for their chronic disease. The second-generation dual-source scanner is a recently available advanced clinical cardiac computed tomography (CT) scanner. It offers a combination of the high-spatial resolution of modern CT, the high-temporal resolution of dual-source technology, and the wide z-axis coverage of modern cone-beam geometry CT scanners. These advances in technology allow novel protocols that markedly reduce scan time, significantly reduce radiation exposure, and expand the physiologic imaging capabilities of cardiac CT. We present a case series of complicated adult congenital heart disease patients imaged by the second-generation dual-source CT scanner with extremely low-radiation doses and excellent image quality.
