Fig 1 (A) Transesophageal echocardiogram demonstrating the false lumen of the aortic dissection along the ascending aorta. (AO = ascending aorta; LA = left atrium; LV = left ventricle; RV = right ventricle.) (B) Transesophageal echocardiogram with color flow Doppler reveals bright mosaic color jet of high velocity originating within the aorta and entering the right atrium. (AO = ascending aorta; LA = left atrium; RA = right atrium.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 2001 72, 921-922DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(00)02478-4)
