At Prime Heart Care, we provide specialized cardiac imaging techniques to ensure accurate diagnosis of complex heart conditions. One such advanced test is Trans Esophageal Echocardiography (TEE), which offers a closer and clearer look at the heart’s structures.

What is Trans Esophageal Echocardiography (TEE)?

TEE is a type of echocardiogram where the ultrasound probe is gently inserted into the esophagus (food pipe) to obtain high-quality images of the heart. Since the esophagus lies close to the heart, this method provides a more detailed and unobstructed view compared to standard echocardiography.

Why is TEE Performed?

TEE is especially useful in situations where routine 2D/3D Echo may not give enough clarity. It is commonly recommended for:

• Detecting heart valve diseases (especially prosthetic valve evaluation)

• Identifying blood clots, infections, or tumors inside the heart

• Detailed assessment before and after cardiac surgery or interventions

• Diagnosing congenital heart defects

• Evaluating aortic diseases like dissection or aneurysm

Benefits of TEE:

• Provides sharper, more precise images of heart structures

• Detects abnormalities not visible on standard echocardiograms

• Essential in planning and monitoring complex heart surgeries

• Quick, safe, and highly accurate diagnostic tool
