Abstract
Fetal transesophageal and intracardiac echocardiography by utilizing u ltrasound technology permits accurate definition of cardiac anatomy in fetal sheep, Because fetal transesophageal echocardiography is less i nvasive than intracardiac echocardiography, it has the potential to se rve as a monitoring tool for currently developed open and fetoscopic f etal cardiac interventions.
