WAVE EQUATION
velocity = frequency x wavelength

55
how long does it take for US to cover 1 cm (go-return time)?
13 microsec
56
4 components of Wilkins-Abascal score
1) valve mobility 2) subvalvular thickening 3) valve thickening 4) calcification Graded 1-4 each; has to be \<8

59
dP/dT
Thus, dP/ dt is P1-P2 (32) divided by the time interval in seconds it takes for MR jet to go from 1 to 3 m/sec. A normal dP/ dt is more than 1000 mm Hg/ sec.

E/E'
A ratio of the transmitral E velocity to the tissue Doppler E′ velocity greater than 15 predicts an LV end-diastolic pressure more than 15 mm Hg.
67
IVRT
The IVRT (normal 50-100 ms) is prolonged with impaired relaxation but is shortened with severe diastolic dysfunction and impaired compliance.
