Two-dimensional echocardiography is a readily applicable method for the quantification of ventricular volumes. However, it is limited by assumptions regarding ventricular shape. Three-dimensional echocardiography has emerged as a more accurate and reproducible approach to ventricular volume and functional assessment compared with two-dimensional echocardiography. We review the principles of transthoracic rotational scanning and its clinical application for quantitative assessment of ventricular volume and function.
二维超声心动图是一种易于应用的心室容积定量方法。然而,它受心室形状假设的限制。与二维超声心动图相比,三维超声心动图已成为一种更准确、可重复的心室容积和功能评估方法。我们回顾经胸旋转扫描的原理及其在心室容积和功能定量评估中的临床应用。
