Anatomy of the Right Heart

What you will learn

The anatomy of the right heart is distinctly different than that of the left heart. If you want to assess right heart pathologies it is important to know the differences. In this chapter we will give you a detailed explanation of right heart anatomy and demonstrate how the specific features of the right atrium and right ventricle can be identified on the echocardiogram. Watch demonstrations on real anatomy specimens, intracardiac angioscopic videos and see lots of echo examples.
