Abstract
Abstract Background Two-dimensional echocardiography is the most widely used imaging modality for immediate diagnosis, due to its easy access and cost effectiveness. International guidelines recommend four standard views to perform a comprehensive minimum dataset for every adult patient, namely left parasternal, apical, subcostal and suprasternal views. Case summary In this case series, we revisit the right parasternal view (RPV). Although it is infrequently used in routine clinical practice, it provides valuable complementary information, particularly when abnormalities are found on the minimum dataset or when measurement results are inconsistent. Including this view in the imaging protocol adds only a few extra minutes but can yield important additional diagnostic information. Discussion Presented are four cases in which the complementary use of RPV provided decisive diagnostic information that were either missed or underestimated by standard echocardiographic windows and influenced clinical management; re-emphasising the value of adding this view during a routine examination.
