3 Figure 2 Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiographic images from a patient with a complex aortic atheroma (oval). These 3 time-lag short-axis images of the transverse aortic arch demonstrate the mobile nature of a portion of the lesion (arrow).

4 Figure 3 Contrast-enhanced helical computed tomography of the chest in a patient awaiting cardiothoracic surgery. This image demonstrates significant atheromatous plaque in the aortic arch, both with (solid arrow) and without (dashed arrow) calcification.

7 Video 1 Case 1: short-axis view (best viewed on repeat with Windows Media Player). Intraoperative epiaortic ultrasound scanning demonstrating normal ascending aorta before aortic cannulation in a 60-year-old woman undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.

9 Video 3 Case 2: short-axis view (best viewed on repeat with Windows Media Player). Epiaortic ultrasound scanning identified a large shelf of calcified posterior plaque in the distal ascending aorta/proximal arch in a 77-year-old woman undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting and aortic valve replacement. Ultrasound was used to identify and select sites for aortic cannulation, crossclamping, aortotomy, and proximal anastomoses in areas of unaffected ascending aorta well away from the posterior shelf.

11 Video 5 Case 3: short-axis view (best viewed on repeat with Windows Media Player). Epiaortic ultrasound scanning demonstrated diffuse calcifications in the anterior and posterior ascending aorta in a 75-year-old man undergoing CABG. The surgical plan was altered to avoid aortic cannulation or crossclamping. The patient underwent on-pump beating-heart CABG via right axillary artery cannulation. The left internal mammary artery was grafted to the left anterior descending artery, and a saphenous vein was sequenced to the obtuse marginal and posterior descending artery distal targets, allowing for a single, proximal, aortic anastomosis performed with a clampless facilitating device.
