pubmed:abstractText |
Mechanical prostheses induce artifacts that decrease the accuracy of conventional transthoracic echocardiographic imaging for the detection and quantitation of periprosthetic mitral regurgitation. In 15 patients undergoing transthoracic echocardiography, injection of sonicated albumin significantly enhanced the assessment of periprosthetic mitral regurgitation with an accuracy similar to that of transesophageal echocardiography.
