“…Then, even comparability between 2D and 3D echocardiography can be assumed if spatial and temporal resolution of 3D data sets are sufficient, echocardiographic views are standardized, endocardial surface rendering is performed properly ( Figure 1 ), and algorithms of 3D echocardiography reflect the true distances. Clearly, 3D echocardiography is the modality of choice for proper assessment of cardiac volumes under pathological conditions [ 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 ].…”
