3D transesophageal echocardiography assists in evaluating the morphology, function, and presence of thrombi of left atrial appendage in patients with atrial fibrillation

BACKGROUND: Left atrial appendage (LAA) is significantly more likely to form thrombi in patients with atrial fibrillation (AFib). Two-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (2D TEE) is considered the gold standard for assessing and studying LAA morphology and anatomy. However, 2D TEE can only...
