Transesophageal transducer technology: an overview
Abstract
Early developments and basic principles in the field of Transesophageal Echocardiography (TEE) probe technology are summarized. Mechanical and electronical sector scanners are compared, and several probe characteristics and image parameters are discussed. A short review of recent developments in TEE is given.
