Description
Cecília Beatriz Bittencourt Viana Cruz and co-authors review how ultrasound of the heart helps track patients after a heart transplant. A new heart is still the best care for some people with end-stage heart failure, yet rejection and artery disease in the graft can cut life short. Tissue samples and vessel scans remain the truth tests, but they are invasive.
Heart ultrasound is painless and can be repeated often. The review lays out what scans should look like after each type of surgery, and what they show in early graft trouble, rejection, and late failure. Newer tools that track strain add value, but no single measure settles the call on its own.
