Two-Dimensional TEE

Abstract

TEE examinations include transversal and longitudinal views of the heart. The most common TEE endoscopes are equipped with monoplanar transducers which provide only transverse views. With the recent advent of new biplanar probes, an additional longitudinal plane can be visualized along with the transverse one. The second longitudinal plane adds further useful information for spatial localization of intracardiac blood flows and for three-dimensional imaging of the cardiac chambers.
