Echocardiography plays a key role in the diagnosis and management of adult patients with congenital heart disease and is considered the first-line diagnostic technique. Apart from traditional cross-sectional imaging, three-dimensional echocardiography and strain and strain rate imaging were introduced for specific indications and for better describing anatomical details and functional consequences of the different congenital lesions. For specific indications, additional imaging may be required including cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and computational tomography. Especially in adult congenital heart disease, echocardiographic imaging may be limited by poor acoustic windows and additional evaluation using other imaging modalities may be required. Additionally, MRI and CT imaging have proven to be extremely valuable for evaluation of right ventricular size and function and for describing extracardiac anatomy (pulmonary arteries, pulmonary veins, and aorta).
