Sağ Ventriküler Deformasyon Analizi İçin Transözofageal ve Transtorasik Ekokardiyografinin Karşılaştırmalı Değerlendirmesi

Amaç: Transtorasik ekokardiyografi (TTE), sağ ventrikülün (SV) boyut ve fonksiyonunu değerlendirmek için birincil yöntemdir, ancak SV’nin karmaşık yapısal ve anatomik konumu nedeniyle TTE ile değerlendirilmesi güç olabilir. Transözofageal ekokardiyografi (TÖE), görüntü elde etmede zorluklarla karşılaşıldığında TTE’ye iyi bir alternatif olarak tercih edilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, RV işlevlerinin değerlendirilmesi için TTE ve TÖE arasındaki uyumu araştırdık.

A COMPARATIVE ASSESSMENT OF TRANSESOPHAGEAL AND TRANSTHORACIC ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY FOR ANALYSIS OF RIGHT VENTRICULAR DEFORMATION

Objective: The transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is the primary method to evaluate the right ventricular (RV) functions, but the assessment of the RV by TTE can be difficult due to the complex structural and anatomical position of the RV. The transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is a good alternative to TTE when faced with difficulties in obtaining images. In this study, we investigated the agreement between TTE and TEE for the evaluation of the RV functions.
