The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate mitral (left atrioventricular valve) and tricuspid (right atrioventricular valve (AVV)) regurgitation using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) as the non-invasive "gold standard" compared to transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) to evaluate measurements of the width of the regurgitation jet (vena contracta (VC)) to demonstrate the utility of the VC as a means to objectively evaluate atrioventricular valve regurgitation. In addition, feasibility and other quantitative and qualitative measures of regurgitation will be compared between CMR and TTE. * Hypothesis 1: The ability to objectively evaluate atrioventricular valve regurgitation and VC width with TTE and CMR has a high feasibility rate with acceptable intra and inter-observer variability by two independent readers. * Hypothesis 2: There will be positive correlation between the TTE measurement of the VC width and quantitative assessment of atrioventricular valve regurgitation by TTE and CMR. * Hypothesis 3: There will be a positive correlation between the quantitative measurements of atrioventricular valve regurgitation by phase contrast velocity encoded CMR with quantitative values as measured by TTE. * Hypothesis 4: There will be a positive correlation between qualitative assessment of atrioventricular valve regurgitation by CMR compared to TTE.
