Cross-sectional echocardiographic demonstration of duct-related intimal tissue plaques within the pulmonary artery

The cross-sectional and colour flow mapping echocardiographic appearances of extension of ductal tissue within the pulmonary artery in three infants referred for echocardiographic assessment of a cardiac murmur are reported. The ductal plaques described may be common but are not necessarily of clini...
