Dynamic three-dimensional echocardiography using parallel slicing: a promising diagnostic procedure in adults with congenital heart disease

Cardiology
T BartelR Erbel

Abstract

In 18 of 77 adult patients presenting with congenital heart disease, three-dimensional conceptualization was found to be insufficient using two-dimensional echocardiographic imaging. In these individuals, three-dimensional image reconstruction from digitized parallel images was carried out, providing additional information in 14 of them. Three-dimensional echocardiography and volumetry may, especially in patients with atrial septal defect, cor triatriatum and corrected transposition of the great arteries, be an asset amplifying the diagnostic information yielded by conventional two-dimensional echocardiographic approaches.

Birth Defects

Birth defects encompass structural and functional alterations that occur during embryonic or fetal development and are present since birth. The cause may be genetic, environmental or unknown and can result in physical and/or mental impairment. Here is the latest research on birth defects.
