• …..INTERVENTIONAL TEE IS USED TO GUIDE AND ASSESS THE PROGRESS

AND OUTCOME OF INTERVENTIONS IN A REAL-TIME, CONTINUOUS, AND

STEPWISE FASHION.

• IN THIS CONTEXT THE INTERVENTIONAL ECHOCARDIOGRAPHER BECOMES A

CO-PROCEDURALIST, PROVIDING CLEAR, TIME-EFFICIENT, STEP-BY-STEP

GUIDANCE FOR INTERVENTIONAL CARDIOLOGISTS NAVIGATING THE

COMPLEXITIES OF CARDIAC ANATOMY WITH CATHETERS, BALLOONS, AND

DEVICES. IT IS CRITICAL THAT DURING INTRA-PROCEDURAL IMAGING, THE

INTERVENTIONALIST AND ECHOCARDIOGRAPHER MAINTAIN CONSTANT

COMMUNICATION REGARDING ANATOMIC STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION AS

WELL AS THE ACTUAL PROGRESS OF THE PROCEDURE. …..

3D ECHO: A NEW DIMENSION TO ASSESS THE HEART

High spatial and temporal resolution—

which allows unique details views of

cardiac structures.

This additional information helps guide

interventional procedures leading

to safer and shorter procedures with higher

technical success,

decreased radiation exposure, and

improved patient outcomes

• RT 3D TOE IS A NOW A REGULAR RESIDENT AT THE CATHETER LABORATORY AS IT IS USED FOR

ALL SORTS OF INTERVENTIONS. THE INTERVENTIONAL ECHOCARDIOGRAPHER MUST BE AWARE

OF THE DIFFERENT IMPLANTATION PROCEDURES BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO GUIDE A PROCEDURE

AND BE APPROPRIATELY TRAINED IN A HIGH OUTPUT DEPARTMENT.

• RT 3D TOE HAS BEEN SHOWN TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL INSIGHT IN THE ANATOMICAL,

MORPHOLOGICAL AND HAEMODYNAMIC STATEMENT. IT HAS BECOME THE IMAGING

MODALITY OF CHOICE BY MANY INTERVENTIONALISTS, AND IN MANY CASES IT SERVES AS

‘THE OPERATOR’S EYES’ TO EVALUATE, GUIDE, AND ASSESS THE RESULTS OF THE PROCEDURES

IN THE CATH LAB.

• THE UNIQUE STRUCTURAL INFO OBTAINED BY RT3D TOE OFFER SHORTER AND SAFER

INTERVENTIONAL PROCEDURES, WITH HIGHER TECHNICAL SUCCESS, THUS IMPROVING PATIENT

OUTCOMES.
