3 FIGURE 2 Schematic representation of probe placement axis (arrow) in the main pulmonary artery. The great vessels are viewed in cross section from above. A = anterior; AO = aorta; L = left; P = posterior; PA = main pulmonary artery; R = right. CHEST  , DOI: ( /chest ) Copyright © 1991 The American College of Chest Physicians Terms and Conditions

4 FIGURE 3 Representative flow velocity pattern in the pulmonary artery in a dog before and after embolization. Arrows indicate the onset of right ventricular ejection (1), the peak flow velocity (2), and the end of right ventricular ejection (3).

5 FICURE 4 Consecutive tracings of flow velocity outlines in the pulmonary artery in a dog before and after embolization. Arrows indicate the onset of right ventricular ejection (1), the peak flow velocity (2), and the end of right ventricular ejection (3). Each measurement was obtained from an average of 10 to 15 consecutive cardiac cycles. CHEST  , DOI: ( /chest ) Copyright © 1991 The American College of Chest Physicians Terms and Conditions
