title: Location of stents in the left anterior descending coronary artery using three dimensionally acquired, two dimensionally displayed transthoracic echocardiography.
abstract: The location of left anterior descending arterial stents was documented in 10 of 13 patients using 3-dimensionally acquired, 2-dimensionally displayed transthoracic echocardiography. The echocardiographic appearance of stents was characterized, and the location of the proximal and mid-left anterior descending artery was objectively documented.
