Predictive value of transesophageal echocardiography combined with contrast transthoracic echocardiography for embolic stroke of undetermined source
CONCLUSION: The combination of cTTE and TEE is helpful to the diagnosis of ESUS patients caused by PFO and to judge the degree of RLS.PMID:37657946 | DOI:10.1177/02676591231198356

Left atrial appendage occlusion
EuroIntervention. 2023 Feb 6;18(13):e1038-e1065. doi: 10.4244/EIJ-D-22-00627.ABSTRACTPrevention of stroke represents a goal of primary importance in health systems due to its associated morbidity and mortality. As several patient groups with increased stroke rates have been identified, multiple approaches have been developed and implemented: oral anticoagulation (OAC) for patients with atrial fibrillation, surgical and percutaneous revascularisation in patients with carotid disease, device closure for patients with patent foramen ovale, and now, left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) for selected patients with non-valvular...

Computed Tomography for Detecting Patent Foramen Ovale: A Meta-Analysis
CONCLUSION: CCT shows good diagnostic accuracy in detecting PFO with relatively high sensitivity and specificity. CCT could be considered a noninvasive alternative to transesophageal echocardiography for detecting PFO.PMID:36602503 | DOI:10.1532/hsf.5049
