very useful, Thank you for such great videos

Thank you so much! Great explanation!

Thanks, very useful.

[@shaistaessani1424]

please clarify , you are saying end-diastole should be measured at frame before closing MV valve, but books says at the frame after closing MV.

[@masteringEcho-US-cardiology]

The meaning of before closing is ONE frame before the valve close completely (it is almost closed but not completely)- in another word, at IVCT & IVRT (any of them that has clear border & largest dimension) . I explained this concept in this clip in details: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYKlaGWZbMmIkMUsi=Ex-ZQZvwaXOaQLW4

Ok can someone please explain this for me. In school we were taught that the LV in diastole corresponds with the widest opening of the mitral value. So I am very confused.

[@masteringEcho-US-cardiology]

Diastole start from opening of mv up to closing at the end of diastole (q on ECG) so during diastole mv opens widely two times beginning and after p wave. So during all diastolic phase lv size increased until the end of diastole that has highest volume . Check diastolic dysfunction clips and physiology of the heart clip in channel

In ECHO impossible to make accurate measurements.

[@sanad775]

Hello, great video! im confused on the point of measuring LVOT and RVOT. why did you measure LVOT at mid-systole, but RVOT at end-diastole? thank you

[@masteringEcho-US-cardiology]

that is the way measure those two: LVOT at largest dimeter that correspond mid or end systolic. and RVOT at largest diameter that is on the end diastole. Is that clear?

[@sanad775]

@@masteringEcho-US-cardiology Yes, thank you sir.

[@masteringEcho-US-cardiology]

@@sanad775 you are welcome

[@samcardio8935]

I think LV sizes should be measured at end diastole, therefore mitral valve should be opened.

[@masteringEcho-US-cardiology]

largest diameter , any moment right before or after closing MV.

[@nuhfakrul334]

If u measurement LV Wall Thickness negative thats mean your measurement are not accurate..this is my opinion about your measurement 2D PLAX..correct me if iam wrong.

[@masteringEcho-US-cardiology]

I don't get your question .What do you mean negative? do you mean : during systole if measurement becomes less?

Please show how to take good images on OBs patients. Some tall and big patients have very difficult to scan, even some times i cant get PALX images but apical are easier. Please make a video while scanning big patient or old patient. Thank you

Hi Sidra, please check all videos, special windows in Echo , I explain them
