Since the early work of Edler and Hertz in 1954,                            echocardiographic methods have grown in importance and reliability for the diagnosis of many cardiac disorders. The placement of a maneuverable transducer on the tip of a modified endoscope is the result of relatively recent                            technologic advances. The transesophageal approach is now a reality for obtaining new information from ultra-sonic images of a beating human heart. Since images obtained by transesophageal echo cardiography are uniformly of                            excellent quality, it extends the diagnostic potential of echocardiography to the patient who is difficult to image from the conventional chest wall approach. More importantly, transesophageal echocardiography provides a means                            to acquire u\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1 Development of Transesophageal Echocardiography.- 2 Principles of Ultrasound.- 3 Cardiac Imaging from the Esophagus; 2-D Anatomy; Use of the Transesophageal Probe.- 4 Clinical Applications of Transesophageal 2-D Echocardiography.- 5 Quantitative Analysis of 2-D Echocardiographic Images.- 6 Doppler Echocardiography.","brand":"Springer-Verlag New York Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51742558159191,"sku":"9781461292067","price":999.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781461292067.jpg?v=1758385225","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/transesophageal-echocardiography-9781461292067","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
