Abstract: Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) has emerged as a pivotal imaging modality in cardiac electrophysiological studies and structural heart interventions, providing real-time visualization of cardiac structures and improved procedural guidance. ICE has proven particularly valuable in atrial fibrillation ablation, ventricular tachycardia ablation, transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), transcatheter tricuspid valve repair, mitral valve repair, and left atrial appendage closure. Despite challenges such as the learning curve and equipment costs, the potential for advancements in ICE technology is significant, with developments in three-dimensional imaging, higher resolution probes, integration with other imaging modalities, and incorporation of automation and artificial intelligence. As ICE continues to evolve, its impact on patient outcomes and procedural safety is expected to grow, further solidifying its role in the management of cardiac conditions.
