Stunning images of left main in routine echocardiography !

January 23, 2013 3:26 pm

If only  . . . we get  an  image like this , echo can help rule out most  left main disease with conviction .

Have a close look  at it ! One can get a good image of  coronary ostia in short axis view . But , here it is well visualized  in long axis .

left main

I tried to put color flow within left  main .

left  main color flow

What about pulsed  Doppler across left main ?

After all it needs 2mm sample volume and this left main was near 4.5mm . So keep trying !
