Abstract
The first part of Chapter 12 details the relevant anatomy, physiology, and TOE views required for accurate assessment of the RV. Included are several useful imaging planes that are not presented in Chapter 4: Standard views. Next, the techniques for assessing global, regional, and diastolic RV function are outlined. The characteristic features of RV pressure and volume overload are described. The final part of the chapter brings together the information from the previous sections to provide an approach to assessing RV function during the perioperative period.
