Abstract
Tetralogy of Fallot is the most prevalent cyanotic congenital heart disease, requiring lifelong multimodality non-invasive cardiac imaging, such as echocardiography, cardiothoracic computed tomography, and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. As imaging techniques continuously evolve and are gradually integrated into clinical practice, there is a critical need to update multimodality imaging protocols. Over the last two decades, cardiothoracic computed tomography imaging techniques have advanced remarkably, significantly enhancing its role in evaluating patients with tetralogy of Fallot. In this review, we describe contemporary multimodality non-invasive cardiac imaging protocols for tetralogy of Fallot, emphasizing the expanding role of cardiothoracic computed tomography. Additionally, we present standardized reporting forms designed to facilitate the clinical adoption of these protocols.
