    Thank you Dr. Haider for posting this image. In a world of multimodality imaging we often overlook the original king - CXR.

    Houston, we have a problem! TEE screen for TriClip procedure… reveals RA appendage thrombus. Isolated RAA thrombus is rare (without LAA or LV thrombus). Chronic AF and severe RV systolic dysfunction likely responsible. #iEcho #echofirst

    Starting to love the new 3D color Doppler visualization tools. MV pre-TEER for P1 flail. The “standard” 3D color Doppler shows the medially directed MR jet. The TruView imaging shows an other-worldly MR nebula.

    Severe functional TR. #mitraclip x2 to septal/anterior leaflets. TR much improved, RV systolic function a little worse (as expected). Learning so much about the forgotten valve; #❤️interventionalecho @ASE360

    78 yo, bioMVR, w dyspnea + hemolysis. Noted clear systolic & diastolic paravalvular flow but predicted a 12x7x20 mm Amplatzer VSD occluder would fit. It didn't - pulled right through with a tiny tug. Lesson: Diastolic paravalve flow = really big hole. #iecho, #valve, @ASE360,
