Echocardiography is almost a hundred percent sensitive and specific for the detection of AR and it is fundamental to determining the aetiology and estimating the severity of regurgitation. .Whilst a cardiac magnetic resonance imaging is necessary to visualize the heart including the aortic root by using a magnetic fieldwaves.
Mr Jones’ chest xray was suggestive of an enlarged heart, however, no effusions or pulmonary oedema were detected . Cardiac catheterization with aortography and hemodynamic measurements is not necessary in the majority of patients with aortic regurgitation because of the accuracy of echocardiography (Oxorn, 2011). Throughout cardiac catheterization, aortic regurgitation can be detected by injecting contrast
