echocardiogram
This is from a trans-thoracic echocardiogram of a patient with a long history of heart disease and coronary interventions as well as kidney disease.
"... dilatazione del settore destro; ridotta funzione sistolica longitudinale del ventricolo destro (TAPSE 10 mm).
It's the "settore" that's giving me trouble. I don't find anything online for dilated right sector/section/segment. I find thousands of examples of "dilated right heart" but I don't know if this is what my phrase means.
How should I translate this?

Hi Joe,
as you know, there is no standard nomenclature in IT med reports.
Sector can mean anything. I would translate it this way. You might wait to see if someone more expert than I comes up with a better answer
