Thoroughly revised and updated for its Second Edition, this highly regarded text and atlas uses a unique problem-oriented approach to demonstrate the clinical applications of transesophageal echocardiography. The book provides comprehensive coverage of current TEE usage in cardiac and noncardiac surgery and features an extensive series of case discussions based on specific presenting problems. Complementing the text are more than 700 large TEE photographs, including 300 state-of-the-art color images. This edition includes multiplane TEE, new imaging modalities, current practice guidelines, and new applications such as TEE use in minimally invasive cardiac surgery. The editors have also added introductory chapters on TEE principles, safety, techniques, and views.
