Core Tip

Core Tip: Right-sided infective endocarditis (RSIE) is an increasingly important subtype of infective endocarditis (IE), although less published literature is available regarding RSIE compared to left-sided IE. Recently, with improvements in multimodality imaging, there is an increasing role for imaging in the evaluation and management of tricuspid valve endocarditis (TVIE). We review the role of cardiac imaging in diagnosis and evaluation of TVIE, and provide a concise update on the management of these patients.
