• Incorrect Doppler alignment to flow ( > 20º)
• Incorrect sample volume placement (Place at annulus, not leaflet tips)
• Incorrect annular measurement: (error)2 , Mitral annular calcification (MAC)
• Failure to trace modal velocity (especially MV)

Locating the Color Flow Convergence
• Zoom region of interest (Decreases error of radius measurement)
• Shift color Doppler baseline in the direction of the regurgitant jet
• Baseline shift to obtain an optimal hemispheric flow convergence signal for PISA measurement
• Time the radius measurement to coincide with the peak AR velocity by CW Doppler

Aortic Regurgitation (AR) Evaluation by 2-D and Doppler Echo
• Echocardiography remains the imaging modality of choice for the diagnosis of the mechanism and the quantitation of severity of AR
• Careful application of the concepts of the continuity equation are needed for accurate quantitation of AR
• Quantitation of AR is the sum of all 2-D and Doppler data, not a single parameter
