Table 15 Right atrial volume and function in the adult for the SSFP technique based on the Simpson’s method according to reference [21]

From: Normal values for cardiovascular magnetic resonance in adults and children

Parameter mean SD Lower/ upper limits*
Max. RA volume (ml) 101 30 41-161
Max. RA volume/BSA (ml/ m2) 53 16 21-85
Min. RA volume (ml) 50 19 12-88
Min. RA volume/BSA (ml/m2) 27 10 7-47
SV (ml) 50 16 18-82
SV/BSA (ml/m2) 26 9 8-44
EF (%) 47 8 31-63
  1. RA = right atrial; Max. = maximal; Min. = minimal; SV = stroke volume; EF = ejection fraction; SD = standard deviation; BSA = body surface area; * = calculated as mean ± 2*SD; since no influence of gender was demonstrated, gender specific values are not presented.
