Live 3D Echocardiography: A Replacement for Traditional 2D Echocardiography?
American Journal of Roentgenology, 2006We describe the development of real-time 3D imaging and review the previously used versions of 3D echocardiography so that the reader will appreciate why current developments truly do represent a quantum leap in the technology.Three-dimensional echocardiography has now been shown to have several advantages over 2D echocardiography, particularly for ...

Real-Time 3D Intracardiac Echocardiography
Cardiac Electrophysiology Clinics, 2021With real-time three-dimensional ultrasound, live volumetric images with adequate spatial and temporal resolution are obtained to accurately display structures with complex anatomy and guide interventional procedures. In this review, we will provide an overview of current ultrasound technologies that allow for real-time three-dimensional imaging, with ...

Real-Time 3D Transesophageal Echocardiography
Ultrasonic Imaging, 2004Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is an essential diagnostic tool in patients with poor transthoracic echocardiographic windows or when detailed imaging of structures distant from the chest wall is necessary. A real-time 3D TEE probe has been fabricated in our laboratory in order to increase the amount of information available during a ...

Mitral Valve Regurgitation and 3D Echocardiography
Future Cardiology, 2010The mitral valve is a complex, dynamic and functional apparatus that can be altered by a wide range of disorders leading to stenosis or regurgitation. Surgical management of mitral valve disease may be difficult. Planned intervention may not always be feasible when the surgeon is faced with complex pathology that cannot be assessed fully by ...

Endocardium segmentation in 3D Transesophageal Echocardiography
2013 IEEE 10th International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging, 2013Segmentation of endocardial walls from 3D Transesophageal Echocardiography (3D TEE) is a critical step in helping characterize the pathophysiology of heart disease. The goal of this paper is (a) to present a new level set method based on the use of a novel inhibition function and (b) to asses its performance and that of other best of breed segmentation

Advances in 3D echocardiography for mitral valve
Expert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy, 2011The advent of real-time (RT) 3D transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in 2007 has enhanced our understanding of the location and extent of the pathology of the native, as well as prosthetic, mitral valve (MV), particularly for MV prolapse and the anatomy of perivalvular dehiscence with prosthetic MV.

Surgical Echocardiography of the MV: Focus on 3D
Seminars in Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2018The mitral valve remains a complex structure where multiple forms of pathology can be seen. Mitral regurgitation continues to be one of the most common valvular diseases in the industrialized world. While intraoperative 2-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography has been commonplace for some time, 3-dimensional technology has emerged and has shown ...

3D echocardiography: evaluation of the right ventricle
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2009Evaluation of right ventricular (RV) volume, function and mass has been challenging because of its unique cavity geometry. However, it is indispensable, especially in patients with signs of right-sided heart failure and those with congenital heart diseases. Thus, many investigations on the RV have been published to this end.

Zeitschrift fur Kardiologie, 2000
Three-dimensional echocardiography has been realized in two different technical approaches: first as reconstruction of previously acquired multiple two-dimensional cross-sections, and recently as real-time 3D echo. Both approaches allow one to measure quantitative parameters of cardiac structures, such as mass and volume, with an accuracy far superior ...

Pre-processing for 3D echocardiography
Computers in Cardiology 1995, 20023D-Echo provides more complete information about cardiac structures with respect to traditional 2D-Echo. A correct interpretation of 3D data is often made difficult by the high level of noise necessarily linked to the procedure of acquisition. Traditional filtering techniques do not enable either the noise to be eliminated or the edges to be maintained.
