“…b Postnatal echocardiography displays the typical appearance of multiple cardiac rhabdomyomata in the right ventricle and right atrium (arrows), as well as in the interventricular septum (arrowheads) dren with diagnosed suspected tuberous sclerosis. Rhabdomyoma is the most common cardiac tumor in the fetus and pediatric population which is followed in frequency by fibroma and teratoma [7]. Most rhabdomyomata are multiple, whereas fibroma and teratoma are most likely single.…”

“…13 Outside of improved visualization, CMR allows for tissue characterization that is not possible using echocardiography. CMR has been used in pregnancy to evaluate and diagnose intra-cardiac masses, 14 acute myocardial infarction, 15 cardiac blood cysts, 16 in addition to evaluation of the myocardium for iron overload (Figure 2). CMR can be a valuable tool in cardiovascular imaging and may provide additional information above and beyond that of standard echocardiography in diagnosing and managing pregnant patients with cardiovascular disease.…”

Contemporary considerations for the use of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging during pregnancy

Cardiovascular imaging during pregnancy is frequently used to help direct diagnosis and management for women with known or suspected cardiac disease. Although echocardiography is the most commonly used imaging modality in pregnancy, cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging is an important and increasingly used tool, which can provide complementary, and oftentimes incremental, information regarding cardiovascular anatomy, ventricular function, and vascular flows. Advantages of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging over echocardiography and other imaging techniques include superior reproducibility, excellent cross-sectional evaluation of cardiac structures, high spatial resolution, and lack of ionizing radiation (a limitation of computed tomography and conventional catheter-based angiography). Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging in the absence of gadolinium-based contrast agents poses no known risk to the mother or fetus and its applications in pregnancy are expanding. Clinicians should be familiar with the role of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging in pregnancy to optimize and enhance care for mothers with heart disease.
