The busier you are in life, the more important it is to meditate. Meditation is getting back to that serenity which is your original nature.

M-Mode Echocardiography Explained
This figure demonstrates M-mode measurements from the parasternal long-axis (PLAX) view, crucial for assessing valvular & ventricular function:
🔹 Aortic Valve Motion (Top Panel)
- The right coronary cusp (RCC) and non-coronary cusp (NCC) move apart in systole (valve opens) and come together in diastole (valve closes).
🔹 Mitral Valve Motion (Middle Panel)
- The anterior mitral leaflet (AML) and posterior mitral leaflet (PML) exhibit characteristic movements:
- Diastole: AML moves towards the septum (E wave) due to rapid LV filling, then slightly back (A wave) due to atrial contraction.
- Systole: Leaflets close tightly, preventing regurgitation.
🔹 Left Ventricular Dimensions (Bottom Panel)
- End-diastolic diameter (EDD): Largest LV dimension measured before systole.
- End-systolic diameter (ESD): Smallest LV dimension after contraction.
- These values help calculate LV function (e.g., fractional shortening & ejection fraction).

ALT Illustration of M-mode echocardiography from the parasternal long-axis (PLAX) view. The aortic valve panel shows RCC and NCC separation during systole and closure during diastole. The mitral valve panel displays anterior and posterior mitral leaflet movements (E and A waves). The left ventricle panel highlights LV cavity dimensions, with EDD and ESD measured to assess function.
