Interpreting Cardiac MRI Report

Hi,

Can anyone help me interpret the following cardiac MRI?

Thanks,
C

Global LV function:
   LV ejection fraction  66.43  
   LV myocardial mass  62.72 grams  
   LV end diastolic volume  102.9 cc  
   LV end systolic volume  34.54 cc  
   LV stroke volume 68.36 cc  
   Cardiac output  4.2 L/min  

   LV measurements:
   LV end systolic dimension  3.7 cm    
   LV end diastolic dimension  5.4 cm    
   LV end diastolic thickness    
    -ASWT (anteroseptal wall thickness) 0.4
    -PLWT (posterolateral wall thickness) 0.5


   Global RV function:
   RV ejection fraction  58.6%  
   RV end diastolic volume 122.8 cc    
   RV end systolic volume  50.8 cc    
   RV stroke volume 72 cc  

   RV measurements:
   RA end systolic dimension 4.9 cm    
   RV end diastolic dimension  5.5  cm  
   Motion: There are no segmental wall motion abnormalities noted.

   Aortic valve analysis: (phase contrast flow measurements)
   Peak velocity: 130 cm/s
   Calculated peak gradient (modified Bernoulli equation): 6.8 mmHg
   Forward volume: 82.5 cc
   Reverse volume: 0 cc
   Net forward volume: 82.5 cc.
  
   Aorta above the sinotubular junction:  29 mm.
   Aorta at the sinotubular junction:   23 mm.
   Aortic root:             27 mm  
   Ascending aorta:   23 mm  
   Descending aorta: 18 mm

It looks like everything is the right size and volume. I don't know the standards for the specific labs but the number are likely comparable to the echo value. And all your number look fine. I am not sure about the right ventricle. Echo usually does not measure the volumes.
Do you have the official interpretetion of it?
Usually they try to answer the question the ordering MD is asking.

Hope that helps
