Echocardiography, transthoracic, real-time with image documentation (2D), includes M-mode recording, when performed, complete, with spectral Doppler echocardiography, and with color flow Doppler echocardiography.
TEE, or Transesophageal Echocardiography, is a medical imaging technique used to obtain detailed images of the heart and surrounding structures. It involves inserting a specialized ultrasound probe into the esophagus, allowing for clearer views than transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) due to the proximity of the esophagus to the heart. TEE is particularly useful for diagnosing conditions like heart valve diseases, blood clots, and congenital heart defects. It is often performed when more standard imaging techniques are insufficient.
