2-chamber view

2-chamber view 

The 2-chamber view in the image on the down is achieved by rotating the images perpendicularly to the mitral valve and parallel to the cardiac septum. This axis gives an overview of the left atrium ventricle and mitral valve. It is a good view for analyzing ventricular function, especially that of the inferior and anterior walls. For attaining functional data, consecutive short axes must be reconstructed making use of the 3- and 4-chamber views.
