Interventional Echocardiography: Current Role and Progress

Interventional Echocardiography: Current Role and Progress

Advances in cardiovascular interventional techniques have enabled percutaneous treatment for a wide spectrum of non-coronary cardiovascular diseases, also known as ‘structural heart diseases (SHD)’. As these therapies are performed without an open-heart surgery, the use of echocardiography is crucia...
