The American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) published in 2019 a comprehensive proposal for a standardized adult transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) examination protocol. The document defines a structured and complete imaging approach intended to ensure diagnostic accuracy, reproducibility, and uniform reporting standards.
The official guideline is available via the ASE website.
In the accompanying MP4 presentation, the entire proposed examination protocol is reconstructed step by step according to the original guideline. All standard views, measurements, and Doppler assessments are systematically demonstrated.
For an experienced echocardiographer, performing the full comprehensive protocol requires approximately 40–45 minutes under routine clinical conditions.
