Investigations
The ECG may reveal atrial tachyarrhythmias with right axis deviation, tall P waves and RBBB. The chest radiograph can show dilatation of central pulmonary arteries and right chamber dilatation. Diagnosis is with an echocardiogram, which can identify and evaluate anatomical defects. Coronary angiography is used to assess pulmonary arterial pressures.
