The sensitivity of echocardiography in diagnosing TAPVR has been reported to be around 80%.11 Lee et al concluded that cardiac catheterization and angiocardiography were unnecessary, and echocardiography could accurately determine the pulmonary venous drainage site.

Serial measurement of left ventricular ejection fraction either by transthoracic echocardiogram or by radionuclide angiocardiography, as done in patients receiving doxorubicin, may be a useful modality in monitoring patients planned for bevacizumab therapy via any route while the search for more sensitive and reliable predictors of eventual left ventricular dysfunction continues.
