Abstract

Congenital aortic stenosis is one of the more common forms of cardiac disease, accounting for an incidence of 2 to 6% (1) and acquired aortic stenosis is of considerable interest in patients beyond childhood. Accordingly, noninvasive study of the left ventricular outflow tract (LYOT) is of substantial interest. Echocardiography has become a valuable and proven method for diagnosis and management of many congenital and acquired cardiac abnormalities.
