Abstract
Atrial fibrillation is associated with low-flow state and increased
thrombogenicity in the left atrium (LA). Multiple echocardiographic
presentations, including thrombosis, sludge, and smoke formation, have
been demonstrated in just one biplane transesophageal
echocardiographic view, along with normal structures, i.e., pectinate
muscles and Coumadin ridge, which are highly educational for
cardiologists.
