REVIEW
Innovation in 3D Echocardiographic Imaging.
Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine 2018 January 20
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The purpose of this review is to detail three-dimensional echocardiographic (3DE) innovations in pre-surgical planning of congenital heart disease, guidance of catheter interventions such as fusion imaging, and functional assessment of patients with congenital heart disease.
RECENT FINDINGS: Innovations in 3DE have helped us delineate the details of atrioventricular valve function and understand the mechanism of atrioventricular valve failure in patients with atrioventricular septal defect and single ventricle post repair. Advancement in holographic display of 3D datasets allows for better manipulation of 3D images in three dimensions and better understanding of anatomic relationships. 3DE with fusion imaging reduces radiation in catheter interventions and provides presentations of 3DE images in the similar fashion as the fluoroscopic images to improve communication between cardiologists. Lastly, 3DE allows for quantitative ventricular volumetric and functional assessment. Recent innovations in 3DE allow for pre-surgical planning for congenital heart disease, reduce radiation using fusion imaging in catheter interventions, and enable accurate assessment of ventricular volume and function without geometric assumptions.
