Hemodynamics by Transesophageal Echocardiography
Cardiology Clinics, 1993The transesophageal approach has improved echocardiographic investigation of cardiac structure and function. As a new window to the heart with markedly improved resolution, TEE gives better insight into cardiac morphology and pathology than does precordial imaging.

Safety of Transesophageal Echocardiography
Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography, 2010Since its introduction into the operating room in the early 1980s, transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has gained widespread use during cardiac, major vascular, and transplantation surgery, as well as in emergency and intensive care medicine. Moreover, TEE has become an invaluable diagnostic tool for the management of patients with cardiovascular ...

TRANSESOPHAGEAL ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY
Critical Care Clinics, 1996This article presents an overview of the benefits and efficacy of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in the critically ill patient. The echocardiographic evaluation of ventricular function both regional and global, is discussed with special emphasis on ischemic heart disease; assessment of preload, interrogation of valvular heart disease ...

Transesophageal Echocardiography in Stroke
Cardiology in Review, 2000Fifteen to twenty percent of all ischemic strokes are of cardioembolic origin. Since the introduction of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in 1976, its clinical application in the diagnosis of cardioembolic stroke has expanded greatly. Comprehensive literature has accumulated showing TEE as an invaluable tool for the diagnosis of cardioembolic ...

Transnasal transesophageal echocardiography
Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography, 1997Transesophageal echocardiography has been used as a diagnostic tool in the critical care unit. However, long-term serial evaluation of ventricular function with transesophageal echocardiography is difficult because of the current probe sizes and intolerance to prolonged oral intubation.

Transesophageal Echocardiography of the Aorta
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1994Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has become a widely used imaging technique for evaluating cardiac structure, function, and valvular anatomy. Transesophageal echocardiography has also provided a new perspective on the thoracic aorta, and there is growing evidence that the technique contributes valuable and sometimes unique information about ...

Transesophageal Echocardiography: Is it for Everyone?
Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 1990Intraoperative use of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) to detect ischemia is more predictive of a postoperative myocardial infarction than is ECG, and two-dimensional (2-D) TEE has been shown to be more sensitive than ECG in detecting regional wall-motion abnormalities, which are highly suggestive of ischemia.

Transesophageal echocardiography and stroke
Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2005Only coronary artery disease and cancer kill more people than stroke in the United States. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is a semi-invasive ultrasound cardiac imaging technique that provides superior anatomic detail as well as functional information.

Intraoperative Transesophageal Echocardiography
Cardiology in Review, 2000Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is an important tool in the intraoperative management of patients undergoing cardiac surgery as well as high-risk patients undergoing noncardiac procedures. This technique is widely used during valve surgery and particularly valuable during valve repair.
