L'angio-scintigraphie permet (...) d'apprécier quantitativement la régurgitation, en tenant compte de l'activité du ventricule droit et en l'absence d'insuffisance tricuspidienne. La mesure de la fraction de régurgitation par cette technique est bien correlée à l'appréciation qualitative par l'angiographie classique et à la fraction de régurgitation angiographique.
