Left ventricular ejection fraction by real-time three-dimensional echocardiography
Despite a staggering technical progress in echocardiography, in daily clinical practice assessment of left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) is still often done in a rather inaccurate two-dimensional (2D) manner. Real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT3DE) provides a more representative realistic view of LV volumes, thereby being the Necker cube for the naive realism of 2D method...
متن کاملLeft ventricular assessment using real time three dimensional echocardiography.
T he ability to accurately assess left ventricular function non-invasively is essential for patient management since it has been known for years that left ventricular ejection fraction serves as an important predictor of long term survival. Although two dimensional (2D) echocardiography is routinely used in clinical practice to obtain information on left ventricular dimension, wall thickness, a...
متن کاملPoor left ventricle compaction: diagnosis optimized by real-time three-dimensional echocardiography.
Mailing address: Gabriel Antonio Stanisci Miguel • Rua Santa Madalena, 290/131 01322-020 São Paulo, SP Brazil E-mail: [email protected] Manuscript received November 13, 2006; revised manuscript received February 16, 2007; accepted March 13, 2007. We treated a 37-year old male patient with diagnosis of poor left ventricle compaction. The two-dimensional echocardiography demonstrated extensive...
متن کاملSemi-automated quantification of left ventricular volumes and ejection fraction by real-time three-dimensional echocardiography
BACKGROUND Recent studies have shown that real-time three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography (RT3DE) gives more accurate and reproducible left ventricular (LV) volume and ejection fraction (EF) measurements than traditional two-dimensional methods. A new semi-automated tool (4DLVQ) for volume measurements in RT3DE has been developed. We sought to evaluate the accuracy and repeatability of this m...
متن کاملAssessment of left ventricular dyssynchrony by real-time three-dimensional echocardiography.
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES A number of different imaging methods have been proposed as possible tools for assessing left ventricular (LV) mechanical dyssynchrony. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT3DE) for studying LV mechanical dyssynchrony. METHODS In total, 60 individuals underwent RT3DE, including 10 healthy volunteers...
