Constrictive pericarditis four-chamber, ECG-gated cine SSFP MR

Find this and other cases at Imaging Consult - http://imaging.consult.com - In mid-diastole, the thickened pericardium begins to restrict right ventricular filling, causing a rapid increase in ventricular pressure. Early changes of septal flattening and bowing of the interventricular septum toward the left ventricle (normally concave in shape toward the left ventricle during diastolic filling) are seen. This pressure change results in diastolic septal dysfunction, the septal bounce described in echocardiography.
