Abstract
Intraoperative echocardiography (including transesophageal echocardiography, epiaortic ultrasound and epicardial echocardiography) is commonly performed in North American hospitals during cardiac anesthesia. Several authors have reported on the positive impact of intraoperative echocardiography on patients' outcomes. Transesophageal echocardiography is useful in identifying anatomic and functional abnormalities either before or after cardiopulmonary bypass and helps to make decisions in the care of high-risk and unstable patients. In minimally invasive and robotically assisted surgery, transesophageal echocardiography is essential in order to guide cannulation of venous and arterial vessels for cardiopulmonary bypass and in providing immediate assessment of the quality of the performed repair. Intraoperative echocardiography can also detect complications associated with the performed procedure and can be an excellent hemodynamic monitor in unstable patients. In this paper different scenarios where intraoperative echocardiography is useful are reviewed, some clinical cases are shown to illustrate, and a review of related literature is reported.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
