What do the results mean?

The TEE test results offer critical insights into the structure and function of the heart. You can detect abnormalities such as blood clots, aneurysms, or issues with the heart valves during this examination. Here's a brief explanation of what different results might indicate:

●  Normal result: The heart's chambers and valves are functioning correctly. There are no visible blood clots or tumors, and the aorta appears normal.

●  Abnormal result: There could be several reasons for an abnormal result. There might be blood clots in the heart, a problem with one of the heart valves, a tumor in the heart, or an aorta problem.

Remember, these results must be interpreted regarding the patient's overall health and symptoms. Any abnormal findings will require further investigation, potentially involving other diagnostic tests or procedures.
