🧵for the new residents and students on the meaning of 'French' and 'Gauge'. We've covered this on here in the past, but a lot of new people are starting on surgical rotations, so let's look at them again. As usual, we'll cover their history and what they mean. (1/ )

Dr. Nadeen Faza - interventional imaging fellow extraordinaire. Nice capture of the Balis needle puncture at 12 o’clock on the fossa (viewed from the LA). We always aim to puncture b/w 12-2 o’clock, and we always use 3D echo! #valve #iecho

Great point! Ao flow reversal is less specific for significant AR in the elderly, but...if new only after TAVR that’s useful. Important to look for it at baseline. #ASEchoJC

Both reversal of flow and pressure halftime should be used with caution. #ASEchoJC #ASE2019 @ASE360
