Unequivocal interpretation of dobutamine stress echocardiography in low-flow, low-gradient aortic stenosis by right parasternal view

We present the case of a 77-years-old man with aortic valve stenosis (AS) and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, in whom right parasternal view provided the best hemodynamic evaluation of AS severity during dobutamine stress echocardiography

Automated summary

Using the right parasternal view during dobutamine stress echocardiography can provide the most accurate assessment of aortic valve stenosis severity in patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction.
