Interventional Echocardiography

Kimberly Chadwell, RDCS

Dawn Sanchez, Society for Diagnostic Medical Sonography, 2745 N. Dallas Parkway, Suite 350, Plano, TX 75093, dsanchez{at}sdms.org

The topic of interventional echocardiography is a difficult one to define; is it an application that is used to assess and alter therapy and medications, alter patient management, guide an invasive procedure, plan an invasive procedure, or evaluate the efficacy of an invasive procedure? This review helps to define interventional echocardiography techniques as those used to either (1) guide an invasive procedure, such as during pericardiocentesis or atrial septostomy, or (2) plan and evaluate an invasive procedure, such as in the case of valvuloplasty or myectomy.

Key Words: pericardiocentesis • valvuloplasty • alcohol ablation • intraoperative sonography
