approach to demonstrate the clinical applications of
transesophageal echocardiography. The book provides

noncardiac surgery and features an extensive series of case
discussions based on specific presenting problems. Complementing
the text are more than 700 large TEE photographs, including 300
state-of-the-art color images.
This edition includes multiplane TEE, new imaging modalities,
current practice guidelines, and new applications such as TEE
use in minimally invasive cardiac surgery. The editors have also
added introductory chapters on TEE principles, safety,
techniques, and views.
