Echocardiographic evaluation of prosthetic cardiac valves

E F Mahan 3rd et al. Cardiol Clin. 1990 May.

Abstract

Comprehensive echocardiographic examination of patients with prosthetic cardiac valves using M-mode, two-dimensional, conventional, and color Doppler echocardiography represents an invaluable clinical tool in the serial follow-up of these patients. A thorough knowledge of these techniques and their limitations allows accurate assessment and prevention of misdiagnoses.
