How embarrassing🥶 my mistake posting my photo👎 I was visiting my 95 yo mother and took few pictures. Thought nice to use one of them to my profile, but did not realize it would be posted. Well, my mom & I like to take this chance to wish everyone a Happy New Year of Dragon!

Since there is a high interest in color M mode of hepatic vein diastolic reversal flow (red flow) with expiration in constrictive pericarditis, I like to share another one with corresponding PW Doppler in a pt with constriction and atrial fibrillation. Julián Vega Adauy Abdul Jamil Tajik

Yes. The color M mode beautifully demonstrates diastolic flow reversal with expiration which is diagnostic for constrictive pericarditis. You may want to share corresponding pulsed wave Doppler tracing.

#EchoAsia2023 10th anniversary of AAE-Asian-Pacific Association of Echocardiography has attracted 860 participants and faculty from 15 Asian Pacific Societies. Among them are President of Korean, Thailand, and Singapore Echo Society or Chapter who were a fellow at Mayo Clinic CV .

This case illustrates the diagnostic importance of medial mitral annulus ( MA) e' velocity.
TEE showed reduced motion of MA with e' of 4 cm/s which is diagnostic for cardiomyopathy. Surgery was cancelled.
See video for annulus motion before & after typical pericardiectomy.

Exactly right for red color in the LV, not likely for a small VSD with left to right shunt. Moreover, color jet is laminar, not turbulent as expected in VSD shunt.

Exactly. Cath was consistent with, but not diagnostic for constriction since several other diseases can provide similar hemodynamic tracing.

A 65 yo pt was referred to cardiac surgery for pericardiectomy with CT and cath (see below) consistent with constriction. Intraoperative @ase TEE was performed by an outstanding anesthesiologist. What do you think he said to the surgeon who is about to do sternotomy? AAE-Asian-Pacific Association of Echocardiography

I like to invite you to ECHO ASIA 2023 to be held on Nov. 23 - 25 in Seoul, Korea. Outstanding faculty from American Society of Echocardiography EACVI President and 15 AAE-Asian-Pacific Association of Echocardiography member Societies. Share your best Echo case or research at the meeting. ksecho.org/workshop/KSE20…
