Don't underestimate the subcostal view! It's a powerhouse, especially in COPD and cardiac arrest.

Subcostal or Sub-Xiphoid? What? are they different? Yes! The RV appears bigger in the Sub-xiphoid and it can be more painful for patients.

Pericardial effusions: Often best seen here.

Cardiac arrest: Quick access to the heart.

Subcostal short axis: A hidden gem for visualising the RV, LV, and septum.
