A Previously Healthy Man in His 30s With Worsening Shortness of Breath Over 5 Days.

The collapsibility index of the inferior vena cava is traditionally visualized from the subcostal region in the sagittal plane, referred to here as cIVC. Alternatively, the collapsibility index of the inferior vena cava can be visualized from the right midaxillary line in the coronal plane, referred to here as cIVC. It is unclear whether values of cIVC are comparable with values of cIVC because the inferior vena cava collapses asymmetrically into an elliptical form, quantified as the flat ratio of the inferior vena cava (F-IVC). This study aimed (1) to establish if cIVC is concordant or discordant to cIVC, and (2) to describe how this concordance or discordance is related to F-IVC.
