title: Transesophageal echocardiography in infants and children with congenital heart disease.
abstract: TEE applications for children and infants with congenital heart disease are now clinically established and TEE is being used in most major pediatric cardiovascular centers. This technology has evolved to the point that it is capable of providing diagnostic quality imaging, even for small infants. With expanding technology and increasing experience, new and more sophisticated applications will be found for pediatric TEE.
