With the development of each new

of cardiac structures. Image resolution remains a concern for transthoracic 3D imaging, but the recent development of 3D transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) (either real-time or reconstructed) has made this less of an issue. Development of 3D echocardiography has made vast contributions to the understanding of mitral valve function. Although in the majority of patients with mitral stenosis, ...
متن کاملMultiplane two-dimensional versus real time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography in ischemic mitral regurgitation.
OBJECTIVES Intraoperative three-dimensional (3D) transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has been suggested to be a valuable technique for the evaluation of the mechanisms of ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR). Studies comparing multiplane two-dimensional (2D) with 3D TEE reconstruction of the mitral valve using the new mitral valve quantification (MVQ) software are lacking. We undertook a pros...

We compared live/real time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (3D TEE) with real time two-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (2D TEE) in the assessment of individual mitral valve (MV) segment/scallop prolapse and associated chordae rupture in 18 adult patients with a flail MV undergoing surgery for mitral regurgitation. 2D TEE was able to diagnose the prolapsing segmen...
متن کاملRheumatic involvement of the cleft mitral valve
A 67-year-old female patient was referred to our transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) laboratory for the evaluation of the severity of valve pathologies. Two-dimensional (2-D) transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) revealed rheumatic mitral valve with moderate mitral regurgitation (MR), moderate mitral stenosis (MS), and severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR). In 2-D TEE, we also identified rheuma...
متن کاملUtility of real‐time three‐dimensional echocardiography in improved assessment of a mitral valve papillary fibroelastoma
Primary cardiac tumors are exceedingly rare. They are usually first identified by transthoracic echocardiography. However, transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), with the aid of real-time three-dimensional (3D) imaging, can provide additional important mass characteristics. We present a case that demonstrates the usefulness of 3D TEE in characterizing a papillary fibroelastoma.
