18 lut 2013 · Notice the abnormal right border of the heart. The right interlobar artery is not visible, because it is not surrounded by aerated lung but by the collapsed lower lobe, which is adjacent to the right atrium. On a follow-up chest film the atelectasis has resolved.

Describe the acoustic windows and echocardiographic views required for optimal evaluation of the right heart. Describe the echocardiographic parameters required in routine and di-rected echocardiographic studies and the views to obtain these parameters for assessing RV size and function.
Right atrium. The cardiac anatomy will be discussed in the order of normal blood flow: from the right to the left. In the normal situation, contrast will be injected intravenously - usually in the arm - reaching the right atrium via the superior vena cava.
The heart size should be assessed on every chest X-ray. If the CTR is <50% on either a Posterior - Anterior (PA) or an Anterior - Posterior (AP) view, then the heart size is within normal limits. However, a PA view is required to confidently diagnose cardiac enlargement.
15 sty 2015 · Right atrial pathologic findings can be broadly categorized into (a) congenital anomalies (cor triatriatum dexter, Ebstein anomaly, and aneurysm), (b) disorders of volume (tricuspid regurgitation, pathologic mimics such as a pseudoaneurysm, and atrial septal defect), (c) disorders of pressure (tricuspid stenosis, restrictive cardiomyopathy, and ...
23 mar 2023 · A systematic approach to CXR interpretation is essential to avoid missing significant pathological changes. Determine the ownership, adequacy and technical quality of the film. Name and date of birth of the patient and date radiograph was performed. Projection (e.g. PA, AP, lateral). Posture (e.g. supine or erect).
facilitate passage through the right heart. They are designed to be placed without the need for fluoros-copy, although screening is often helpful if the patient has marked right heart dilation or severe tricuspid regurgitation. The catheter is inserted into the right atrium (RA) (15–20 cm via IJV, 10–15 cm
