17 year-old female with Tetralogy of Fallot repaired with transannular patch at 2 years of age. Particle trace visualization during a right ventricular diastolic time frame demonstrates pulmonary regurgitation (closed arrow). The majority of the flow from the right atrium (RA) into the RV is directed abnormally toward the RV apex (curved dashed arrow) with a smaller vortex just beyond the tricuspid valve (open arrow). Color-coding was achieved with respect the absolute acquired velocities. SVC = superior vena cava; IVC = inferior vena cava; MPA = main pulmonary artery; RPA = right pulmonary artery.
