How to image the aortic arch with echocardiography

One of the advantages of using a 3D echocardiography probe is that you can actually record several 2D-views simultaneously - which not only saves time but also facilitates examinations such as stress echocardiography. In this clip, Prof. Thomas Binder, MD introduces this way of imaging and of course gives some examples.

This clip is about assessing VSDs. You will learn where to look for them, how they look, and why flow velocity plays a role.

Here we discuss what an aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection are, where to find them, and what the risks are.

In this video Prof. Thomas Binder, MD shows you how to distinguish between two common forms of cardiomyopathy, namely dilated and ischemic cardiomyopathy resulting from coronary artery disease.
