Inferolateral
What is the name of the circle LV segment seen?
The apical septal wall
Which 2D dimension measurement would a sonographer be doing if they measured 5-10mm proximal to the pulmonic valve?
The RVOT
What can be said about the yellow line
The RVOT measurement has been taken to low and should be taken at the subvalvular level
