Echocardiographic two-dimensional view of the pulmonary valve in infants: the high transsternal view
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 08 September 2015
Abstract
Neonates and small infants have unique characteristics that make it possible to obtain echocardiographic views that are inaccessible in older patients. A high transsternal approach through the cartilaginous sternum and the thymus gland allows visualisation of a short-axis view of the pulmonary valve. This view should be included as part of routine protocols for echocardiographic examinations performed in this age group.
