Protecting Echocardiographers from Scatter Radiation in Structural Heart Disease Procedures - Infab

As structural heart disease (SHD) advances in cardiovascular medicine, echocardiographers have become vital to the technical success of SHD procedures. However, working in cardiac catheterization or hybrid cardiac surgical suites exposes them to risks, specifically radiation exposure during transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), a procedure that uses ultrasound to visualize the heart's structures.
