Second harmonic transthoracic echocardiography: the new reference screening method for the detection of patent foramen ovale.
AIM Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is still considered as the reference method for the non-invasive detection of right-to-left shunts. Echocardiographic laboratories are spending most of their time performing TEE studies to exclude a thromboembolic cardiac disease. In a considerable proportion of these patients the question can be simplified to exclude a PFO. Replacing these TEE studies...
متن کاملTransmitral Doppler: a new transthoracic contrast method for patent foramen ovale detection and quantification.
OBJECTIVES This study compared a new transthoracic echocardiographic (TTE) method for detection of right to left bubble passage, transmitral Doppler (TMD), against two-dimensional (2D) TTE contrast study and the gold standard, of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), and assessed its utility in quantitative assessment of patent foramen ovales (PFO). BACKGROUND Current TTE methods are relati...
متن کاملTransthoracic second harmonic two- and three-dimensional echocardiography for detection of patent foramen ovale.
AIMS Transoesophageal echocardiography (TEE) with contrast administration is still considered as the reference method for the detection of patent foramen ovale (PFO) with interatrial shunt, but it is a semi-invasive exam. The aim of the present study is to evaluate a role of two- and three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography (TTE and R3DTE) as a diagnostic alternative to transcranial Dop...

nterventional cardiologists have firmly established their ole in the diagnosis and treatment of coronary atheroscleosis. Assessment of hemodynamics has also been a longtanding role for the catheterization laboratory. However, he invasive cardiologist is now becoming involved in the reatment of structural heart disease. Various and increasngly complex procedures are being performed through a ath...
