What you will learn

Quantification of right heart function is quite tricky and more difficult than the quantification of left heart function. There are several different parameters that can be used. These include "eyeballing", TAPSE, fractional area change, tissue Doppler of the RV, and right ventricular strain. Here we will show you how to obtain these individual measurements and how they can be used in an "integrative approach" to quantifying right heart function.
