The use of ultrasound in cardiology for the guidance of vessel cannulations and effusion punctures is getting more and more frequent every day. Ultrasound in this setting provides the operator with many advantages and after a certain learning curve, one is then able to cannulate vessels, that are small or normally inaccessible with the standard anatomical landmarks approach. Since many randomized studies confirmed the benefits of using ultrasound in these procedures, it has become a standard of care for many physicians and hospitals.
