Identify the hepatic vein (HV) in the following two-dimensional TEE view: Modified TG Hepatic Vein View; To aid in the identification of the HV, apply colour Doppler using a low velocity scale (< 40 cm/sec).

Postreperfusion TEE, using the modified hepatic vein views, confirmed the presence of an inferior vena cava (IVC) suprahepatic anastomotic stenosis and hepatic vein and IVC thrombus resulting in hepatic venous outflow obstruction, allograft congestion, and hemodynamic instability.

Thus, TEE has become an essential imaging tool for cardiac surgeons, anesthesiologists, cardiac interventionalists, and clinical cardiologists. The present document is thus intended to be a guide to TEE in the following situations: 1. Diagnostic TEE: TEE performed to address a specific diagnostic question 2. Intraprocedural TEE a. Surgical ...

Recent guidelines have been published providing detailed guidance on specific echocardiographic diagnostic criteria for measurements of diastolic function, chamber dimensions, right ventricular (RV) function, and Doppler measurements.

Dec 17, 2020 · Can be used to guide IAS puncture in structural heart Interventions. IVC /SVC mass extension into RA well visualized. Final message. Getting oriented to TEE planes and images is so useful in structural heart interventions, like TAVRs, mitral clip, LAA occluder, tandem heart, valve in valves, etc.

This is accomplished using 2-dimensional (2D) and 3-dimensional (3D) echocardiography and of late, intracardiac echocardiography (ICE). This review focuses on comprehensive imaging through transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) for transcatheter closure of ASDs.

Transgastric transesophageal echocardiographic (TEE) view with clockwise and 45° rotation of the TEE probe demonstrated the inferior vena cava (IVC) and the right hepatic vein (RHV). The IVC...

Mar 28, 2025 · This study aimed to evaluate right ventricular function during surgery for tumor thrombus in the inferior vena cava (IVC) and/or right atrium (RA) using intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). It also sought to provide evidence supporting the monitoring and hemodynamic management of the right heart by examining the relationship between the use of vasoactive drugs and changes in ...

Using transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) we sought to determine if the inferior vena cava diameter (IVCD) could be used to derive the central venous pressure (CVP) in anesthetized, mechanically ventilated patients.

Feb 10, 2018 · Each of the 20 recommended TEE views can be selected and displayed from the “Select a view” option within this pane. The “3D Heart Model” pane has a freely rotatable static 3D heart model with TEE sector plane that correlates TEE …
