Left 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 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 کاملEvaluation of left atrial volumes and ejection force by real-time three-dimensional echocardiography.
We read with great interest the article by Zhong et al1 entitled ‘Effects of age and gender on left atrial ejection force and volume from real-time three-dimensional echocardiography’. The authors determined the normal reference values for left atrial (LA) volumes and LA ejection force (LAEF) assessed by real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT3DE). The study was interesting, but we hav...
متن کاملLeft 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 کاملObjective evaluation of changes in left ventricular and atrial volumes during parabolic flight using real-time three-dimensional echocardiography.
We tested the feasibility of real-time three-dimensional (3D) echocardiographic (RT3DE) imaging to measure left heart volumes at different gravity during parabolic flight and studied the effects of lower body negative pressure (LBNP) as a countermeasure. Weightlessness-related changes in cardiac function have been previously studied during spaceflights using both 2D and 3D echocardiography. Sev...
