Abstract

Fusion imaging (FI) technology using Echo-Navigator that integrates live transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) and overlays on real-time fluoroscopy. We present our experience placing a right ventricular (RV) support device, a ProtekDuo, in our patient with post-operative RV failure using FI to guide the implantation.
