SJLD Nov 27, 2009:
it just seems strange that the data on tricuspid regurgitation (Vmax and gradient of the regurgitation jet) would be given before the data for flow in the right direction. But anything is possible.
This might help:

MMUlr Nov 27, 2009:
@SJLD yes, of course, you are right with TI -> tricuspid insufficiency; I saw your contrubition *after* posting my answer ...
SJLD Nov 27, 2009:
typo for TV - tricuspid valve??? would make sense (compare with AV) - I can't see how this could be TI = Trikuspidalinsuffizienz here, for example

with TI meaning: Triskupidalinsuffzienz / Engl. triscupid insufficieny(IMO coming from the English term)

Thank you, lirka. - But what about TI? - it's not TR, and TI is used as an international abbrev. - English or German, in echocardiography.//ok, TR does also exist ;-)
