TEE LV wall thickness measurements

Recommended view for measuring LV wall thickness (thin arrows) and internal dimension (thick arrows). Simultaneous multiplane imaging of the left ventricle at the level of the tips of the mitral leaflets shows:
(A) The recommended LV measurements in the TG LV SAX view
(B) The orthogonal TG LV two-chamber view

TEE: transesophageal echocardiography; LV: left ventricular; TG: transgastric; SAX: short-axis.
