  2. Pulmonary valve stenosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_valve_stenosis

    Pulmonary valve stenosis on an echocardiogram. The diagnosis of pulmonary valve stenosis can be made using stethoscopic auscultation of the heart, which can reveal a systolic ejection murmur that is best heard at the second left intercostal space. [9] Transthoracic or transesophageal echocardiography can provide a more accurate diagnosis.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transposition_of_the_great...

    Abbreviations: LV and RV=left and right ventricle, PT=pulmonary trunk, VSD=ventricular septal defect, PS=pulmonary stenosis. Echocardiogram in transposition of the great arteries. This subcostal view shows the left ventricle giving rise to a vessel that bifurcates, which is thus identified as the pulmonary artery.

  4. Heart murmur - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_murmur

    Pulmonary valve stenosis is a crescendo-decrescendo systolic murmur. One can hear it best at the left upper sternal border. It has association with a systolic ejection click that increases with inspiration. This finding results from an increased venous return to the right side of the heart. Pulmonary stenosis sometimes radiates to the left ...

  5. Tetralogy of Fallot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetralogy_of_Fallot

    Color Doppler (type of echocardiography) measures the degree of pulmonary stenosis. Additionally, close monitoring of the ductus arteriosus is done in the neonatal period to ensure that there is adequate blood flow through the pulmonary valve.

  6. Pulmonic stenosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonic_stenosis

    Pulmonic stenosis is usually due to isolated valvular obstruction (pulmonary valve stenosis), but it may be due to subvalvular or supravalvular obstruction, such as infundibular stenosis. It may occur in association with other congenital heart defects as part of more complicated syndromes (for example, tetralogy of Fallot). [citation needed]

  7. Transthoracic echocardiogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transthoracic_echocardiogram

    This type of Echocardiogram may be a better option for patients with thick chests, abnormal chest walls, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and the obese. However, transthoracic is often superior to transesophageal for visualization of the apex of the left ventricle (e.g., left ventricular thrombus ) and visualization of the ventricular size ...
