Critical Benefits of 3D Echo
• Quantification of cardiac chamber volumes and function– Cardiomyopathy, cardio-oncology,
valvular heart disease
• Improved visualization of nonplanar structures within the heart
Emerging Trends in 3D Echo
• Automated chamber quantification• Quantitation of 3D Doppler• Extracting anatomic models of cardiac
structures • Improved visualization and guidance of
interventional procedures

Better with 3D but still underestimate MRI volumes
3DE and MRI Handle Trabeculae Differently
Mor-Avi et al. JACCi 2008;1:413–23But very similar if trabeculae handle the same

Biplane Method of discs
• In Greek mythology, Procrustes was a bandit who forced his victims to fit his bed by either stretching them or cutting off limbs
• Procrustean analysis stretches structures to a template to determine their size and shape
