What am I looking at?

This is a colour Doppler ultrasound image depicting a sagittal section of the chest of a fetus. The aortic arch and descending thoracic aorta can be seen extending from the left ventricular outflow tract.


Colour is used to highlight moving structures, providing information about blood flow and associated structures. Colours are generally assigned according to the direction of movement towards or away from the ultrasound beam, with the blue colour indicating movement away from the ultrasound beam and red indicating movement toward the beam.[1]
