Image guidance for transcatheter mitral and tricuspid valve intervention commonly utilizes the unique advantages of both fluoroscopy and live echocardiography. In some cases, pre-procedural computed tomography is also needed. Classically, they are displayed separately even if modalities are in simultaneous use. This requires procedural operators to watch separate images displaying complementary information and mentally combine these data sources. New hybrid, or fusion, imaging systems allow for multiple imaging modalities to be overlaid on one another to provide the most relevant information on a single screen. While this technological advancement may have some advantages in certain procedures, more data is needed to understand if these systems will improve procedural or clinical outcomes.
经导管二尖瓣和三尖瓣介入治疗的影像引导通常利用荧光透视和实时超声心动图的独特优势。在某些情况下,还需要术前计算机断层扫描。传统上,即使同时使用多种成像方式,它们也是分开显示的。这就要求手术操作人员观看显示互补信息的不同图像,并在脑海中整合这些数据源。新型混合或融合成像系统允许将多种成像方式相互叠加,以便在单个屏幕上提供最相关的信息。虽然这一技术进步在某些手术中可能具有一些优势,但仍需要更多数据来了解这些系统是否会改善手术效果或临床结果。
