Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) is increasingly being used to guide percutaneous
interventional procedures, principally the closure of interatrial septal defects. 1–3 Since its …

Imaging to guide percutaneous closure of patent foramen ovale (PFO) and atrial septal
defect (ASD) has traditionally required transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) with …

Percutaneous transcatheter occlusion of atrial septal defects (ASD) and patent foramen
ovale (PFO) is less invasive than the gold standard of surgical closure [1]. Indications for this …

Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has been employed successfully for guiding
transcatheter device closure of secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) and patent foramen …

Primum-type defects are due to abnormal development of the endocardial cushions and are
often associated with other cardiac abnormalities. Atrial septal defects (ASD) closure in the …

Transthoracic (TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is the standard imaging
method for atrial septal defect (ASD) and patent foramen ovale (PFO) detection, for patient …

Periinterventional echocardiographic guidance is considered desirable in order to make
interventional closure of interatrial communications safe and straight forward …

Recently, many interventional centres have adopted intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) in
preference to transoesophageal echocardiography to guide percutaneous patent foramen …

Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) has become an accepted imaging modality to guide
device closure of atrial septal defect (ASD) and patent foramen ovale (PFO). The use of ICE …
