Transesophageal Echocardiographic Imaging of the Pulmonary Veins

Abstract

This report focuses on the technical aspects of the assessment of pulmonary veins using biplane transesophageal echocardiography, taking into account their spatial anatomical orientation and relationship to neighboring structures. This is aimed at increasing the echocardiographer's ability to visualize the proximal segments of all four pulmonary veins.
