One-Dimensional Examination of the Left Ventricle

For the One-dimensional study of Left Ventricle better to use a parasternal approach (the long axis of the heart). The M-modal cursor should be perpendicular to the long axis of the heart and cross the Left Ventricle at the level of papillary muscles.

one-dimensional EXAMINATION OF THE LEFT VENTRICLE

On the display, from top to bottom, we see the following structures:

  • AWRV - Anterior wall of the right ventricle.
  • RV - Right ventricular cavity.
  • IVS - Interventricular septum.
  • LV - Left ventricular cavity.
  • PWLV - Posterior wall of the left ventricle.
  • PE - Pericardium.
