Three-Dimensional Transesophageal Echocardiography in Percutaneous Catheter-Based Cardiac Interventions

, 2023
Cardiac structural and valve interventions have remained surgical procedures for several decades. The ability to directly visualize the region of interest during surgery made imaging of these structures pre- and postsurgery a secondary tool to compliment

Safety and Feasibility of a CT‐Based Pathway for Left Atrial Appendage Assessment Prior to Inpatient Cardioversion: A Single‐Center Experience

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 5, May 2026.
An alternative for TEE? Cardiac CT is a practical alternative for ruling out LA/LAA thrombi in hospitalized patients who need cardioversion. ABSTRACT Background Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) for left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombus exclusion before cardioversion faces logistical barriers including limited availability, patient intolerance, and

Incremental Value of Live/Real Time Three-Dimensional over Two-Dimensional Transesophageal Echocardiography in the Assessment of Atrial Septal Pouch

, 2015
An atrial septal pouch (ASP) results from partial fusion of the septum primum and the septum secundum, and depending on the site of fusion, the pouch can be left-sided (LASP) or right-sided (RASP).

The Impact of Adjuvant Radiotherapy Combined With Targeted or Immunotherapy on the Heart in Breast Cancer

Thoracic Cancer, Volume 17, Issue 10, May 2026.
Adjuvant radiotherapy combined with targeted or immunotherapy in breast cancer is associated with delayed and dose‐dependent cardiotoxicity. Long‐term monitoring, cardiac dose optimization, and integrated biomarker–radiomics strategies are essential to mitigate cardiovascular risk while preserving oncologic efficacy.

Quantitative analysis of mitral valve morphology in atrial functional mitral regurgitation using real-time 3-dimensional echocardiography atrial functional mitral regurgitation

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2018
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) can result in atrial functional mitral regurgitation (MR), but the mechanism remains controversial. Few data about the relationship between the 3-dimensional morphology of the MV and the degree of MR in AF exist ...

Comparative Outcomes of ICE Versus TEE/Fluoroscopy Guidance Transseptal Puncture in LA Procedures: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 31, Issue 3, May 2026.
ICE‐guided transseptal puncture reduces radiation exposure without compromising efficacy or safety, supporting its adoption as a valuable imaging modality in left atrial interventions. ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the comparative efficacy, safety, and radiation exposure outcomes of intracardiac echocardiography (ICE)‐guided versus TEE/fluoroscopy ...

Left atrial band: A rare congenital anomaly

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2014
Left atrial fibromuscular band is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly. We present a patient with an incidental finding of left atrial band on an intra-operative transesophageal echocardiogram and characterize its appearance on two-dimensional and three ...

The Emerging Role and Clinical Utility of Transnasal Transesophageal Echocardiography

Echocardiography, Volume 43, Issue 5, May 2026.
Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is a cornerstone of cardiovascular diagnostics. Alternative TEE methods that minimize the use of anesthesia would enhance workflow, expand availability, reduce risk, and may provide similar or more accurate information compared to conventional TEE (a).

Echocardiographic detection of free-floating thrombus in left ventricle during coronary artery bypass grafting

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2015
We report an incident of detection of a free-floating thrombus in the left ventricle (LV) using intraoperative two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) during proximal coronary artery bypass graft anastomosis.
