ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY REPORT

FINDINGS:
Pericardium: A possible, trivial pericardial effusion was identified.
 
Left ventricle: Size was normal. Systolic function was normal. Ejection fraction was estimated in the range of 55% to 65%. Although no diagnostic regional wall motion abnormality was identified, this possibility cannot be completely excluded on the basis of this study. Wall thickness was mildly increased.

Doppler parameters were consistent with abnormal left ventricular relaxation (grade 1 diastolic dysfunction).
 
Aortic valve: Aortic valve was not seen well (morphology could not be evaluated). 

Doppler: Transaortic velocity was within the normal range. There was no stenosis. There was no regurgitation.
 
Mitral valve: Mitral valve was not seen well (morphology could not be evaluated). There was normal leaflet separation. 

Doppler: The transmitral velocity was within the normal range. There was no evidence for stenosis. There was no regurgitation.
 
Left atrium: Size was normal.
 
Right ventricle: The size was normal. Systolic function was normal.
 
Pulmonary artery Doppler: Systolic pressure was not estimated.
 
Tricuspid valve: Tricuspid valve was not seen well (morphology could not be
evaluated). 

Doppler: The transtricuspid velocity was within the normal range.
There was no evidence for tricuspid stenosis. There was no regurgitation.
 
Right atrium: Size was normal.
 
Pericardium: A possible, trivial pericardial effusion was identified.
