Intracardiac Echocardiography to Guide Structural Heart Disease Interventions

Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) has been used by physicians for decades to guide catheter-based procedures. However, its application in complex valvular interventions was previously limited due to hardware and software constraints. While transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) remains a staple for guiding transcatheter SHD interventions, several factors are driving a greater role for physician-led intraprocedural ICE imaging. Distorted cardiac anatomy, intracardiac shadowing, and the esophagus’s position relative to cardiac structures can restrict TEE imaging windows, necessitating the use of ICE for better visualization. This webinar reviews clinical applications and protocols for implementing ICE in clinical practice, including case examples of the advantages and limitations of ICE.
