True.

What are the pathological causes of Pulmonary Insufficiency.

A) PV stenosis B) PV annulus dilitation due to PA dilitation C) Rare- Congenital bicuspid PV

Pulmonary Insufficiency is heavily dependant on _________ _________ Doppler.

Continuous Wave

What are the PI severity classification?

Same as Ai- Vena contracta, Jet Size, Depth into RV, Overall width in relation to RVOT.

What are the PV abnormalities?

*Tumors or Masses (rare/ Infectious endo) *Idiopathic dilitation of PA (elderly females, prox PA dilation, occasionally involves both branches, 2ndary PI)

What can cause PA Dilitation?

PHtn.
