Figure 19. Echocardiographic examination to illustrate successful coil occlusion. (1) Demonstrates a patent ductus (D) prior to coil occlusion. (2 and 3) Show the position of the coil (C) within the ductal structure in between pulmonary arteries. Also note laminar flow in the main (mpa), left (lpa), and right (rpa) pulmonary arteries. as shown in (3). This study demonstrates the complete occlusion of the ductus. Replicated from Ref.[7].
