Assessment of atrial septal defects in adults comparing cardiovascular magnetic resonance with transoesophageal echocardiography

BACKGROUND: Many adult patients with secundum-type atrial septal defects (ASDs) are able to have these defects fixed percutaneously. Traditionally, this has involved an assessment of ASD size, geometry and atrial septal margins by transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) prior to percutaneous closure...
