Posterior annular hyperechogenic mass with a hypoechogenic center in a 60-year-old woman with heart failure and LBBB, scheduled for CRT. Could this be a simple annular calcification or something else? #echofirst @alexsfelixecho @iamritu @argulian @alex1708ander @StellEkaterina

#EHJIMP VO₂peak relates closely to heart size in health, but this link is blunted in subclinical diastolic dysfunction—already resembling heart failure. VO₂peak/THV ratio may help distinguish health from overt HF @EHJIMPEiC @JGrapsa @iamritu https://t.co/t60qTIwrYj
