Abstract
There is a broad spectrum of disease processes that affect the right ventricle. Multiple imaging modalities are available in the evaluation of the right ventricle. MRI plays a comprehensive role in the evaluation of right ventricular pathology and provides unique insights into the morphology and pathophysiology as well as accurate quantification of several parameters including volumes and function. In this chapter, we review the comprehensive role of MRI in the evaluation of right ventricle, including sequences, protocol and imaging appearances of common entities.
