Tricuspid TEER: Mastering the Technique-Challenging Imaging: When to Consider 3D ICE, Dr. Gagan Singh

Challenging Imaging: When to Consider 3D ICE, Dr. Gagan Singh

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this discussion, Gagan shares his pioneering experience with Intracardiac Echocardiography (ICE) technology for tricuspid valve repair procedures. He emphasizes the importance of imaging, namely 3D ICE, to ensure procedural success, especially when faced with suboptimal imaging windows. Gagan outlines when to consider 3D ICE, particularly for cases with challenging transgastric or mid-esophageal windows. The conversation also highlights the necessity for teamwork and training, using simulators to practice before actual procedures. This approach can enhance understanding and performance in complex tricuspid tear treatments.
