Which is better Cardic MRI or transesophageal echocardiogram
Should I have an Cardic MRI or transesophageal echocardiogram . ?? My echo is good but I might have a leaky valve and am not sure which one to do.
transesophageal echocardiogram is invasive and uncomfortable for most patients. MRI is superior in imaging but with valves the imaging doesn't need to be that clear. So I think it comes down to expense and comfort.
