Abstract
Advances in transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) have made this modality a powerful diagnostic tool in the critical care unit. TOE in combination with stress (atrial pacing, pharmacological stress) provides important information about myocardial ischaemia and myocardial viability. Recent progress in transducer technology and computerized image processing brings three-dimensional and contrast-enhanced TOE closer to the critical care unit. Finally, miniaturization of probes and automated contour detection techniques make TOE a sensitive and continuous monitor of global and segmental left ventricular function.
