Transesophageal Echocardiography in Stroke

Cardiology in Review, 2000
Fifteen 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 ...

Transesophageal Echocardiography: Is it for Everyone?

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 1990
Intraoperative 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.

[New procedures in transesophageal echocardiography: multiplane transesophageal echocardiography and transesophageal stress echocardiography].

Herz, 1994
Multiplane transesophageal echocardiography is a new development in transducer technology, which allows by rotation of the transducer to obtain not only transverse and longitudinal planes but also all intermediate planes. Exterior control allows continuous rotation of the scanning plane from the conventional transverse plane, corresponding to 0 degree,

Transesophageal Echocardiography

2007
Abstract Multiplane transesophageal echocardiography allows excellent visualization of all cardiac structures and great vessels. The common clinical indications for transesophageal echocardiography are assessment of complications of myocardial infarction, detection of aortic dissection, diagnosis of infective endocarditis and its ...

Transesophageal echocardiography and stroke

Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2005
Only 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, 2000
Transesophageal 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.

Transesophageal Echocardiography in Endocarditis

Cardiology Clinics, 1993
TEE plays a central role in the diagnosis and management of infective endocarditis. In experienced hands this technique is probably over 90% sensitive and specific for the detection of intracardiac lesions associated with endocarditis. TEE should be performed as soon as possible once endocarditis is suspected.
