Abstract:Multiplane transthoracic echocardiography provides numerous sequential images by rotation of the transducer imaging array through 180 degrees with the surface probe at a fixed site. We explored the potential of this new technique with a 3.7/5-MHz prototype multiplane transthoracic probe. Echoanatomic correlations were first examined in ten explanted hearts. The transducer was then applied in 30 normal humans at transthoracic acoustic windows to determine the imaging planes available. Use of this probe in 76 pa… Show more
“…Evaluations of different models of echocardiography console and ultrasound probe design might prove helpful . Industry advances in technology including multiplane imaging from single probe positioning or three‐dimensional image acquisition with offline postprocessing may also eventually prove beneficial …”
In this multisite cross-sectional study, cardiac sonographers experienced significantly more work-related pain and missed more work due to pain than peer employees within cardiology/radiology departments.
