Abstract:
Transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR) offers the potential for improved outcomes for the significant number of patients with severe tricuspid valve regurgitation relative to current treatment options. Imaging is a critical component of the success of this procedure. Here we describe strategies and techniques for the use of 3-dimensional intracardiac echocardiography as an adjunct to standard transesophageal echocardiography during TTVR procedure.

Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE)
TTE is the most common type of echocardiogram which involves placing a transducer on the patient's chest, emitting sound waves to create heart images. TTE is invaluable for evaluating the heart's size, structure, and motion, making it particularly useful for...
