Intracardiac echocardiography: use during transcatheter device closure of a patent ductus arteriosus in a dog

V Chetboul et al. J Vet Cardiol. 2017 Jun.

Abstract

Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) is used in humans for percutaneous interventional procedures, such as transcatheter device closures. Intracardiac echocardiography provides high-resolution imaging of cardiac structures with two-dimensional, M-mode, Doppler, and also three-dimensional modalities. The present report describes application of ICE during transcatheter occlusion of patent ductus arteriosus using a canine ductal occluder in a dog for which transesophageal echocardiography could not provide an optimal acoustic window.

Keywords: Canine; Canine duct occluder; Cardiac; Heart; Ultrasound.
