Hi all

I was born with TOF I had total correction 45 years ago. Two years ago I had a PVR. Today I went for my annual echo for a check up. It seemed to be mostly red in colour with some blue and very little other colours. There was a lot of red. Is this of concern? I know it depends on the view etc too. There was so green and yellow but this was minor. Again some blue but mostly red.

Hi,

Blue and red just shows the direction of the blood, blue is away from the probe and red is towards the probe. Without knowing which view you are looking at and which valve, then it's not really possible to judge what it means, sorry

Not what you're looking for?
