Use of tissue harmonic imaging in pediatric echocardiography
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 August 2006
Abstract
Tissue harmonic imaging improves the quality of images in adults with poor acoustic windows, but its utility in children has yet to be evaluated. The use of fundamental and harmonic imaging were compared in 70 children with poor echocardiographic windows. Scores were higher for harmonic in comparison to fundamental imaging for all views. Harmonic imaging improves the visualization of cardiac structures over fundamental imaging in children with poor echocardiographic windows.
