@fiore_corrado @NMerke Great Corrado!

A real honor to be invited to the Heart Center Berlin for a high-level scientific conference in one of the largest heart centers in the world. Fantastic experience ✨ Thanks for invitation @NMerke and congratulations for the big success of your event! 🔝

Excellent updated review on MAD and how to use #cvimaging to identify pts at risk in #JACCImaging. jacc.org/doi/epdf/10.10… Few key messages for the imagers: 🔻 MAD is infrequently observed in the LV posterior wall and often missed when the diagnosis relies on 2D PLAX -> #3Decho is superior than 2D to detect MAD 🔻 Echo resolution may not allow distinguishing pseudo MAD (posterior MV leaflet abutting the LA wall during systole) from true MAD (superior displacement of posterior leaflet in the LA) -> #WhyCMR may help 🔻 #YesCCT with systolic scans can detect millimetric MAD (3 mm) in 96% of normals that is "invisible" to echo and CMR -> longer MAD length (8-10 mm) may be relevant in MVP as risk marker 🔻 high FR imaging is essential for measuring MAD length, using dynamic frame-by-frame analysis of the mitral annulus throughout the cardiac cycle -> use narrow sector/volume to 🔼 FR 🔻 "double-peak" strain of inf-lat basal segment due to PSS -> risk marker for VAs 🔻 🔼 mechanical dispersion and posterobasal LV wall thickening associated with MAD -> additional risk markers to report Congratulations @KristinaHaugaa @EssayaghBen @Cristinabasso64 @ThorEdvardsen @NAjmoneMarsan

New ESC Guidelines on AF with updated score #esccongress2024

Second T-TEER randomized trial: Tri-FR! Presented at #ESC2024 #ESCCongress2024 by @DonalErwan showing similar TRILUMINATE results: primary 1Yr endpoint driven by QoL but numerically lower mortality and HFH. Longer FU needed. @ESCardioNews @escardio

RESHAPE-HF2 shows no impact on mortality but significant reduction in HFH and improvement in KCCQ. All call for a larger trial to confirm MTEER for lower risk and lower MR severity. #ESC2024

3/3 👉Color 3D with high frame rate in post-processing with Flexislice. Great tool to define by MPR vena contracta or regurgitant orifice 3D

Ebstein’s anomaly of the tricuspid valve is a rare but important congenital heart disease characterized by failure of delamination of the tricuspid valve and a right ventricular myopathy. Read our @JournalASEcho article: bit.ly/3UC0LlX

1/2 🤔Referred for a strange structure in right atrium. 💡Take a look this 2D/3D TOE focused on RAA anatomy 👉 This "band-like structure" is called TAENIA SAGITTALIS, the most prominent pectinate muscle originates from crista terminalis extending upwards and anteriorly #echofirst

@fiore_corrado @denisamuraru Congrats Corrado

An honor to have been invited as speaker at the best European Congress in Cardiovascular Imaging. Wonderful workshop about TOE & 3D echo in amazing sessions with top faculty! Adiós Barcelona! 🇪🇸 Thanks #EACVI2023 and thanks @denisamuraru for this great experience!!
