2017 Inspiring Excellence in Imaging Award

Medical Ultrasound Awareness Month (MUAM) is held annually in October to create awareness of the role diagnostic medical sonographers play in the medical community and to educate the public about medical ultrasound and its many uses in healthcare. We would like to recognize and thank the many individuals that work tirelessly, day-in and day-out, to provide the highest level of care to their patients. We have found that many healthcare providers are unaware of the skill and dedication required to excel in ultrasound. Ultrasound remains one of the few diagnostic imaging modalities that relies so heavily on the skill of the operator!

Last week, we talked about two methods for quantifying the function of the RV (TAPSE & S’ Wave). We selected these methods to explain first due to ease, reproducibility and established prognostic value. As some of our readers pointed out and as we discussed the TAPSE and S’ Wave methods do have limitations though. The 3 main limitations are:
