Overview
Echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of tuberculous pericarditis. Findings on an echocardiography/ultrasound suggestive of tuberculous pericarditis include pericardial effusion, , pericardial thickening, increased right ventricular dimensions, decreased left ventricular dimensions, abnormal septal motion, flattening of the left ventricular posterior wall during diastol, dilated inferior vena cava, and dilated atrium.
Echocardiography/Ultrasound
Echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of tuberculous pericarditis. Findings on an echocardiography/ultrasound suggestive of tuberculous pericarditis include:[1][2][3]
- Pericardial effusion
- Pericardial thickening
- Increased right ventricular dimensions
- Decreased left ventricular dimensions
- Abnormal septal motion
- Flattening of the left ventricular posterior wall during diastol
- Dilated inferior vena cava
- Dilated atrium
