Fig. 1

Echocardiographic views illustrating the four different right ventricular (RV) injury patterns. A isolated RV dilation (apical 4-chamber view). B RV dysfunction without RV dilation (apical 4-chamber view). C RV dysfunction with RV dilation (apical 4-chamber view). D acute cor pulmonale (apical 4-chamber view) with flattening of the interventricular septum worsened by inspiration (yellow arrows, short-axis view in M-Mode). RVEDA: right ventricular end-diastolic area; LVEDA: left ventricular end-diastolic area; RV-FAC: right ventricular fractional area change
