Publisher's Synopsis
This is the first book to explain the emerging field of transoesophageal echocardiography, an indispensible technique for monitoring blood flow and valvular integrity during surgery and for detecting myocardial ischemia. The authors, pioneers of the technique, have provided the 165 Doppler four-colour images and 310 halftones from their actual clinical practice, showing both three and four chamber cardiac views. In addition, 172 pieces of line art are provided to clarify complicated procedures.
