The Role of Echocardiography: Pitfalls of LV Assessment - Bianca Coelho

No label

Bianca Coelho presents a practical session on the common pitfalls of left ventricular (LV) assessment using echocardiography and how seemingly small imaging errors can have major clinical consequences. Through real-world cases, she explores challenges in measuring wall thickness, volumes, ejection fraction, and global longitudinal strain (GLS), highlighting issues such as foreshortening, trabeculations, image quality, and loading conditions. This session focuses on improving image optimisation, measurement accuracy, and ensuring echo findings reflect the true clinical picture.
