Abstract

A simple and inexpensive procedure to obtain M‐mode tracings at any level or direction from two‐dimensional echocardiograms is described. The method permits a complete M‐mode visualization of (1) segmental motion of the cardiac walls, (2) structures difficult to reach with conventional procedures, and (3) two or more cardiac valves simultaneously.
