2 Fig 1 Air bubbles are represented by numerous hyper-refringency areas (black arrows) using transthoracic echocardiography. Air bubbles become visible in the pulmonary veins (PV) and then pass successively through the left atrium (LA), the left ventricle (LV), the left ventricle outflow tract (LVOT), and flow into the ascending aorta (AO) and systemic circulation.
