• In the context of MR, careful evaluation of TR severity is required and the underlying mechanisms should be clearly identifiedgraphic.
• Echocardiography, including advanced techniques such as 3D echocardiography and strain imaging, is the first-line imaging technique for the assessment of these patients but CMR and CT are of additional value for both valve disease severity and myocardial damage (CMR) assessments and for transcatheter procedures planning (CT)graphic.
