Legends of the Echo images


3D LV volume:

3-dimensional ECHO for LV volumetric analysis and calculation of ejection fraction.




Aortic Valve CW gradient:

Continuous wave (CW) Doppler interrogation of trans-aortic valve gradient. A mean systolic gradient of 53 mmHg suggests significant aortic stenosis.




Aortic valve mass:


2D ECHO images demonstrating a huge papilloma-like mass attaching to the aortic valve.




Bicuspid AV M mode:

M mode ECHO demonstrating eccentric aortic valve closure line of a bicuspid aortic valve during diastole.




Color M mode:

M mode image with addition of color flow Doppler of LV cavity. Supplemental information for LV diastolic function could be obtained from the early diastolic flow propagation velocity.
