AbstractVarious sonographic techniques that are implemented in transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) for cardiovascular monitoring, allow for an extensive cardiac structure and function analysis. Major priority is assigned to the judgement on myocardial contractility, ventricular filling end ejection, valvular morphology and structure, as well as diagnosis of the ascending and descending aorta. Correct interpretation of the imaged structures increases diagnostic safety, but is built on high requirements on the investigator. On these grounds, this article aims to inform you on the clinical applications of TEE.
