Dilated PA, RVOT, ↑ PA pressures

Carcinoid

2.2D findings: Difficult to image cusps well as PV is an anterior structure

PV annulus or PA dilated

3.Doppler findings: Color: blue or turbulent diastolic flow in RVOT, may be brief in duration

PW/CW: diastolic flow away from baseline, density, and deceleration slope

PW PV flow: ↑ peak systolic velocity, compare with systemic (AV) flow

4.Associated findings: RV dilated, posterior displacement of LV septum

5.Severity of insufficiency is difficult to quantifyMild PI is common, Swan-Ganz only causes mild PI
