This is the first part of our Right Heart Introductory Course featuring important highlights and teaching points in pulmonary hypertension. We will answer questions such as:
Where can we find the right heart in the chest?
What are the anatomic landmarks of the right heart?
How does the right ventricle contract?
How is the the right heart best imaged with echo?
How should we quantify right heart size and function?
What is right ventricular strain?
How good are measurments of pulmonary pressure obtained with echo?

In addition, we will discuss the role of the pulmonary valve acceleration time, the role of radiology and especially 3D reconstructions in right heart disease and what the risks of a contrast CT are.
