practices of the author, and not necessarily those of SCMR.
• LV & RV function
• Plan initial LVOT view from short axis pilot scan, with the plane through the
aortic root/valve

with turbulent flow (black/low intensity on gradient echo) surrounding this
Choose the best LVOT view for in-plane flow assessment (the one with
the best view of the core jet)
