PLAX |
Transducer 3/4 intercostal space. L sternal border transducer face orientation toward R shoulder |
|
|
PLAX zoomed AV |
Parasternal window PLAX view, ROI zoomed on LVOT AV and Asc AO. Image as perpendicular as possible to the structures and change to a higher interspace as needed |
|
|
PLAX zoomed MV |
Parasternal window PLAX view adjust ROI to zoom on the MV, show full range of motion of both leaflets, proximal chordae, and annulus |
|
|
PLAX RVOT |
Left sternal border 3rd intercostal space index marker to the patient's R shoulder tilt transducer ANteriorly towards the patient's L shoulder. May need to move up a ribspace |
|
|
PLAX RVIT |
L sternal border 3rd intercostal space. Index marker to R shoulder. Tilt INferiorly toward R hip. May need to move down a rib space for doppler |
|
|
PSAX focus on PV |
|
|
|
PSAX focus on AV |
From PLAX rotate 90 clockwise. Transducer orientation marker pointing towards patient's L shoulder. Tilt transducer face slightly upward toward patient's R shoulder |
|
|
PSAX focus on TV |
Parasternal window PSAX view zoomed to focus TV |
|
|
PSAX (MV) |
From PSAX AV view tilt transducer head inferiorly towards patient's L hip. May need to move down 1 rib space. Transducer orientation marker is pointing toward patient's L shoulder |
|
|
PSAX (papillary) |
From PSAX MV view, tilt transducer head down toward patients L hip. May have to move down one rib space. Transducer orientation marker pointing towards patients L shoulder |
|
|
PSAX (apex) |
Left sternal border, 3rd intercostal space. Rotate 90 clockwise from PLAX. Continue to tilt inferiorly. May need to slide down a rib space |
|
|
A4C |
Apical window 4c view
move to patients left side identify apical impulse align orientation toward bed |
|
|
A4C zoomed LV |
Apical window 4C view optimize depth to focus on LV 4ac view |
|
|
A4C RV focus |
Apical window RV focused A4C view rotate the transducer to maximize the RV area and lateral dimensions |
|
|
A5C |
Apical window 5C view
from the A5C view tilt the beam anteriorly to show LVOT.
Tilt anteriorly to demonstrate the RVOT PV and PA |
|
|
A4C Posterior |
Apical window 4c view from the a4c view tilt the beam posterior to show the CS (coronary sinus) |
|
|
A2C |
Apical window 2c view
from the a4c view rotate 60 counterclockwise to show |
|
|
A2C zoomed LV |
Apical window 2c view optimize depth to focus on LV a2c view |
|
|
Apical long axis 3 chamber |
Apical window 3c view
rotate 60 counterclockwise from the A2C view to show 3C |
|
|
Apical long axis zoomed LV |
Apical window 3c view optimize depth focus on LV 3c view |
