经食道超声心动图 (TEE) 是一种广泛使用的成像技术，用于围手术期评估心脏功能和胸内血管结构。(1) 胸主动脉成像是心血管麻醉医师协会推荐的标准术中 TEE 检查的一部分。(2) 大多数胸主动脉可以常规使用多平面 TEE 成像，因为它在通过时与食道相邻。垂直穿过纵隔。然而，传统 TEE 的一个主要限制仍然是所谓的“盲点”。由于食管与远端升主动脉 (AA) 和近端主动脉弓之间插入充气气管，这些区域通常无法通过传统 TEE3 可视化。
TRANSESOPHAGEAL ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY (TEE) is a widely used imaging technique for perioperative evaluation of cardiac function and intrathoracic vascular structures.(1) Imaging of the thoracic aorta is part of the standard intraoperative TEE examination as recommended by the Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists.(2) Most of the thoracic aorta can routinely be imaged with multiplane TEE because it is adjacent to the esophagus as it passes vertically through the mediastinum. However, a major limitation of conventional TEE remains the so-called "blind spot." Because of the interposition of the air-filled trachea between the esophagus and the distal ascending aorta (AA) and proximal aortic arch, these regions Usually cannot be visualized with conventional TEE3.
