Case report: unravelling the puzzle of unicuspid aortic valve with multimodality imaging.

TTE is the test of choice for AS that defines valvular morphology by direct visualization and grades the severity by haemodynamic measurement. However, the accuracy of TTE can be limited by poor acoustic windows and heavy valvular calcification. TEE measures aortic valve area (AVA) by planimetry that requires accurate localization of the AV orifice plane. Similarly, it applies to multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT). While CMR is expensive and mainly available in tertiary centres, it can provide additional information when there is discordance.
