Feasibility and Accuracy of Two-and Three-Dimensional Transthoracic Echocardiography in patients with Right Atrial Dilatation using the Right Parasternal Approach
Background: Echocardiography increasingly used for diagnosis of right atrial dilatation. Three dimensional is superior than two dimensional echocardiography. However, advances and new windows continues to emerge to increase its accuracy Aim of the work: to show the feasibility and accuracy of right...
