The most validated echocardiographic views for the visual assessment of left ventricular systolic function are the apical four-chamber view, the parasternal long-axis view, and the parasternal ...

For example, all patients with ARVD showed an enlarged diastolic RV outflow tract (RVOT) from the parasternal long-axis view, as did 96% of them from the corresponding short-axis view. All of the ...

parasternal long-axis and short-axis views allow the most accurate measurement of epicardial adipose tissue on the right ventricle, with optimum cursor-beam orientation in each view. Hypertrophy ...

The model first recognized the two modalities (2D and Doppler TTE) and identified the cardiac views of TTEs: apical four chamber (A4C), subxiphoid long axis view (SXLAX) of two atria, parasternal ...

This can lead to mitral valve regurgitation. Diagnosis of mitral valve prolapse on echocardiography is done by examing the parasternal long-axis view. If the valve leaflets pass the plane of the ...

An image of right ventricular inflow, obtained in the parasternal long-axis view (Panel B), shows a superior mass (asterisk) and an inferior mass (plus sign). The circumference of each mass ...

Moreover, RV outflow tract, measured on parasternal long axis and at the level of aortic root, was significantly larger in ARVC patients (33.6 (4.7) mm vs 29.1 (3.4) mm and 35.6 (6.8) mm vs 30.1 (2.9) ...

Left atrial diameter (LAD) was assessed by three measurements: LAD1 (by the parasternal long-axis view using a leading edge-to-leading edge measurement of the maximal distance between posterior ...

You can see the image I took of the parasternal long axis view of the heart pumping at the top of this page. Related: AstraZeneca and GSK drugs reduce risk of ovarian cancer returning, studies ...
