Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Medical Imaging
  • Echocardiography

Background:

  • Standardized protocols for intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) are crucial for efficient cardiac assessments.
  • Previous work established standardized monoplane (transverse) and vertical plane TEE views.
  • A complete multiplane TEE examination requires integration of transverse, vertical, and oblique views.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a standardized sequence of oblique views for completing multiplane transesophageal echocardiography.
  • To provide a framework for acquiring comprehensive intraoperative TEE images.

Main Methods:

  • The study details a specific sequence of oblique views for multiplane TEE.
  • Each view is illustrated with 2D echocardiographic images, diagrams, and schematic representations.

  • This approach complements existing transverse and vertical plane TEE protocols.

    • Main Results:

    • A systematic approach to oblique plane imaging in multiplane TEE is presented.
    • The described sequence facilitates the completion of a full multiplane TEE examination.
    • Visual aids enhance understanding and application of the oblique view protocol.

    Conclusions:

    • The described oblique view sequence completes the components of a multiplane transesophageal echocardiography examination.
    • This standardized approach is valuable for intraoperative use, particularly for less experienced practitioners.
    • The findings contribute to more comprehensive and standardized echocardiographic assessments during surgery.
