| description | Abstract Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is widely utilised within many aspects of clinical practice, as such the demand placed on echocardiography services is ever increasing. In an attempt to provide incremental value for patients and standardise patient care, the British Society of Echocardiography have devised updated guidance for the indications and triaging of adult TTE requests for TTE services to implement into clinical practice. |
