This video demonstrates the IVC and aorta in the transverse view. The aorta can be seen on the right side of the screen, directly in front of the spine with acoustic shadow. The IVC is to the left of the aorta, inside the heterogenous liver. A single hepatic vein can also be seen moving toward the large IVC. It can be seen that both the IVC and the aorta are pulsatile, so that is not a useful way to differentiate them.
