*GB wall is normally <3-4mm
 
*CBD
-Measure CBD from inner to inner, normal is up to 6mm to age 69, then add 1 mm per decade (ie 7 mm @ age 70 is nl)
**Measure from inner to inner
 
**Normal is up to 6mm to age 69 (add 1mm per decade thereafter)
-Nl GB wall is <3-4 mm
*Acalculous cholecystitis
 
**GB is >10cm long & >4 cm wide
-For acalculous cholecystitis the GB will be >10cm long & > 4 cm wide

*Measure outer wall to outer wall from diaphragm to bifurcation
 
**Normal is <3cm
-Measure outer wall to outer wall
 
-Nl aorta is <2.9 cm, must measure from below diaphragm in both planes to bifurcation!
 


==Cardiac==
==Cardiac==
*Normal aortic root is <3.8 cm (parasternal view w/ dot pointing to Lt arm)


-In parasternal view w/ dot pointing to Lt arm, the nl aortic root (to look for type A dissection) is <3.8 cm
-One trick is to find aorta & drop probe flat under ribs to see aorta.

*Always point dot to pt Rt (usu at 45 degrees) or @ pt head
*Morrison's Pouch
**Best seen w/ probe around mid ax to ant ax line (esp w/ pt in trendelenberg)
*Splenorenal
**Place probe in post ax line


-Always point dot to pt Rt (usu at 45 degrees) or @ pt head
-Morrisons pouch is best seen w/ probe around mid ax to ant ax line. This is the most sensitive spot to see fluid w/ pt in trendelenberg. Nd 150-500cc of blood to see here depending on skill of sonographer.
-Splenorenal put in post ax line. Nd 400-500cc blood to see
-Also chk bladder for free fluid in pelvis & pericardium for effussion
