Why is it important?
In some cases 3D transthoracic echocardiography can be used as an alternative to other diagnostic tools, such as transesophageal echocardiography, cardiac catheterization, and computed tomography.
Perspectives
I think it is a useful article for all interventional cardiologists and imagers: it describes a very rare TAVI complication.
