Intraoperative Epiaortic Scanning for Preventing Early Stroke After Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass

January 7, 2013 updated by: Yonsei University
Recently epiaortic ultrasound scanning (EAS) has been recommended as an intraoperative tool to accurately assess ascending aorta disease. To date, several studies have reported that EAS is superior to TEE and surgical palpation
