©2013 UpToDate ® Print Email Two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiogram (2D TTE) parasternal long axis view This parasternal long axis echocardiogram was obtained in systole; the aortic valve is open and the mitral is closed. RV: right ventricle; IVS: interventricular septum; NCC: noncoronary cusp of the aortic valve; PW: posterior left ventricle wall; RCC: right coronary cusp of the aortic valve; aML: anterior mitral valve leaflet; pML: posterior mitral valve leaftlet; dAo: descending aorta. Two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiogram (2D TTE) right ventricular (RV) inflow view The parasternal right ventricular (RV) inflow view from the two-dimensional echocardiogram shows the RV and atrium (RA) and the septal and anterior leaflets of the tricuspid valve (TV). The entrance of the coronary sinus into the RA is separated from the entrance of the inferior vena cava by the eustachian valve (EV).

Apical four-chamber echocardiographic view Apical four-chamber view from a two-dimensional echocardiogram. The display shows the apex at the top of the screen with the left ventricle (LV) to the viewer's right. aML: anterior mitral leaflet; LA: left atrium; pML: posterior mitral valve leaflet; RA: right atrium; RV: right ventricle.
