Abstract
|
|
|
|
Echocardiography is a useful, safe and noninvasive method and is the cornerstone in diagnosis and management of children with heart disease1). Although, today more technologically advanced echocardiographic methods are used in this area, transthoracic echocardiography still has been an ideal tool for cardiac assessment, as it is noninvansive, portable, and efficacious in providing detailed anatomic, hemodynamic, and physiologic information about the pediatric heart2). And the two-dimensional echocardiography with Doppler echocardiography is the essential part of the transthoracic echocardiography. Various images should be displayed in pediatric congenital heart disease, because there is a wide spectrum of anomalies. So, standard echocardiographic images and several echocardiographic findings of heart disease in children based on two-dimensional and Doppler echocardiography in transthoracic echocardiography will be briefly presented in this paper.
