Authors: Somerville, Jane; Grech, Victor E.
Abstract: This paper is the fourth of our series focusing on the chest x-ray (CXR), highlighting
that this remains a useful and relatively cheap investigation in congenital heart
disease and allows objective serial comparison. These x-rays are from a female aged 45 years with a secundum atrial septal defect and pulmonary hypertension. Figure one shows a very large heart and gross pulmonary artery dilatatation, evidence of longstanding left to right shunt with pulmonary artery dilatation to periphery of lungs and prominent pulmonary veins in upper lobes.2011-01-01T00:00:00ZThree-dimensional trans-esophageal echocardiographic evaluation of atrial Septal defects : a pictorial essaySharma, Vinay KumarRadhakrishnan, SitaramanShrivastava, Sameer/library/oar/handle/123456789/42432017-12-27T08:56:14Z2011-01-01T00:00:00ZTitle: Three-dimensional trans-esophageal echocardiographic evaluation of atrial Septal defects : a pictorial essay
Authors: Sharma, Vinay Kumar; Radhakrishnan, Sitaraman; Shrivastava, Sameer
Abstract: This pictorial assay illustrates the methodology of evaluating the atrial septal defects
by three dimensional transesophageal echocardiography with the help of
representative images. The article starts by discussing the technical details of how to
acquire and crop the dataset to reconstruct the transesophageal three dimensional
echocardiographic images of the inter atrial septum. Next, the anatomical details of
the normal inter atrial septum are illustrated, followed by representative examples of
all the possible defects of inter atrial septum. All the images have been reproduced in
a uniform pattern which is similar to the view of the inter atrial septum that is seen in
the real life situation by the surgeon.2011-01-01T00:00:00Z
