This week we delve into the world of heart transplantation and echocardiography to review a recent work on non-invasive assessment of the pediatric heart transplant patient. Can stress echo and real time myocardial contrast echo identify coronary vasculopathy in this patient group? How do the results compare to coronary angiography?
