title: [Characteristics of Doppler echocardiographic examination of the right heart in patients with lung diseases].
abstract: The methodological++ features of echocardiographic study in patients with lung diseases are discussed. Doppler echocardiography provides information on the dimensions of the right heart, thickness of the myocardium and the level of pressure in the pulmonary trunk. Ultrasonography of the heart in these patients should be conducted mainly from the apical and subcostal approaches and parameters determined as mean ones for the respiratory cycle.
