TEE measurement of LV end-diastolic area in the transgastric mid-papillary view in a patient with normal ventricular size

Transgastric mid-papillary short-axis end-diastolic view of the LV in a patient with normal ventricular function demonstrating quantitative measurement of end-diastolic area. Note that when measuring end-diastolic area, the papillary muscles should be excluded from the tracing.
