Description
This practical bench manual provides a basic introduction to the "how-to's" of intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography. Unlike standard texts that assume a prior working knowledge of TEE, this manual helps residents and clinicians acquire the essential skills and knowledge. The book guides readers through the physics, principles, applications, and technical issues of 2-D and Doppler modalities and the pitfalls of interpretation. Chapters are written in easy-to-follow format and include multiple-choice questions for exam preparation. More than 200 black-and-white illustrations and 39 color echocardiograms are included. The book is easily portable and easy to use in the operating room.
