Integrated Imaging in the Diagnosis of Prosthetic Valve Thrombosis and Coronary Embolism – ASE
American Society of Echocardiography shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article by Susan K Keen et al, adding:
“Prosthetic valve thrombosis is a rare yet potentially life-threatening complication of valve replacement, often resulting from inadequate anticoagulation.
