From: Native-valve endocarditis detected by point-of-care echocardiography
Point-of-care transthoracic echocardiogram showing signs of infective endocarditis. a Parasternal long axis (PLAX) view depicting a vegetation measuring 22 mm × 13 mm (calipers) attached to the atrial side of the anterior leaflet of the mitral valve. b PLAX showing a severe mitral regurgitation (arrows) triggered by the mitral valve vegetation. c Right ventricular inflow view showing a vegetation of 18 mm × 10 mm (calipers) in the atrial side of the posterior leaflet of the tricuspid valve. LV left ventricle, LA left atrium, AoR aortic root, AV aortic valve, MV mitral valve, da descending aorta, RVOT right ventricular outflow tract, RV right ventricle, RA right atrium, TV tricuspid valve
