AB The  advent  of  percutaneous  therapies  has  revolutionized  our  approach  to  treatment  of  valvular  heart  disease.  The  ability  to  perform  such  interventions  safely  and  effectively  relies  heavily  on  anatomical  details.  Fluoroscopic  anatomy  alone  is  inadequate  to  guide  valvular  interventions  due  to  poor  visualization  of  the  complex  3-dimensional  valve  unit.  More  advanced  imaging  technology  is  thus  required  to  support  fluoroscopy  in  guiding  valvular  interventions.  Understanding  valvular  anatomy  and  correlating  it  real  time  with  presented  multimodality  imaging  is  critical  for  procedural  success  in  the  catheterization  laboratory.
