“…[26][27][28][29][30] Recently, Wu et al showed that through-plane motion produced discrepancies in CS measurements, especially at the LV basal level. 29 In addition, LV twisting affects the LS values: larger twisting is a major determinant of differences between 2D and 3D LS values. In our study also, the absolute differences between 3D and 2D CS correlated significantly with the magnitude of longitudinal displacement (Figures 3C,5).…”

Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) was popularized in the first decade of this century. Analysis of cardiac mechanics has been the focus of ultrasonics, and the breakthrough came with STE. Beyond analysis solely of left ventricular ejection fraction, STE allows the assessment of various pathophysiologies, including myocardial layer-specific myocardial function, twist and rotation, and dyssynchrony. Recent developments in the technology have resulted in commercially available 3-dimensional (D)-STE systems. Through experimental studies and clinical investigations, the reliability and feasibility of 3D-STE-derived data have been validated, and the advantages of 3D-STE over 2D-STE have been revealed. In addition, because of the 3D nature of the technology, 3D-STE provides novel deformation parameters (ie, 3D-strain and area change ratio) that have the potential for more accurate assessment of overall and regional myocardial function. Recently, various preliminary studies using 3D-STE have reported on myocardial characteristics, novel mechanics in the left ventricle, prediction of therapeutic effects, observations of cardiac function through interventions, and challenges for left atrial and right ventricular functions. In this review, we focus on the features of the methodology, validation, and clinical application of 3D-ST.

“…6,7 Twodimensional (2D) STE is commonly used, but the evaluation of strain in 2D planes is often limited by apical foreshortening and geometric assumptions, which may result in inaccurate representations of true mechanical function. Three-dimensional (3D) STE is a novel method to characterize and quantify myocardial deformation [8][9][10][11] ; 3D STE has overcome the limitations of 2D STE 12 and is capable of providing simultaneous comprehensive evaluation of 17 left ventricular (LV) segments in a single beat by measuring the values of myocardial strain in multiple directions, including longitudinal strain (LS), circumferential strain (CS), radial strain (RS), and area strain (AS).…”

“…Due to this, 4D Strain can be considered a natural extension of 2D Strain [3]. Advantages of 4D Strain over 2D Strain are obvious: lower time expenditure due to feasibility of single-step strain assessment in all directions: longitudinal, radial, and circumferential [4], as well as supposedly better accuracy due to the absence of the fallout effect [3,5]. Therefore, 4D Strain study seems promising for early diagnosis of IHD.…”

Abstract. The paper presents new ultrasound technology for assessment of left ventricular (LV) strain in the longitudinal, radial, and circumferential directions and the LV area strain at rest and during dobutamine stressechocardiography in patients with intermediate pretest probability of ischemic heart disease (IHD). Analysis was performed for the first time using real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (4D Strain). It was shown that in patients with single-artery left anterior descending artery (LAD) and left circumflex coronary artery (LCX) stenosis of 50% and more, the decreases in the global LV strain in the longitudinal, radial, and circumferential directions as well as in the LV strain area were observed at peak dobutamine stress in 4D Strain mode. Assessment of global LV strain in 4D Strain mode during dobutamine test had low sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy in diagnosing single-vessel coronary artery disease. Assessment of left ventricular mechanics in patients with ischemic heart diseaseMyocardial strain is currently considered a parameter characterizing left ventricular (LV) contractility [1]. Assessment of global LV strain in the longitudinal direction has been widely implemented in clinical practice based on speckle tracking imaging technology (2D Strain) [2]. Recently, three-dimensional real time imaging (4D Strain) was developed for assessment of LV strain. This approach consists in speckle tracking in three dimensions through time which requires the absence of motions beyond a plane of scanning. Due to this, 4D Strain can be considered a natural extension of 2D Strain [3]. Advantages of 4D Strain over 2D Strain are obvious: lower time expenditure due to feasibility of single-step strain assessment in all directions: longitudinal, radial, and circumferential [4], as well as supposedly better accuracy due to the absence of the fallout effect [3,5]. Therefore, 4D Strain study seems promising for early diagnosis of IHD. However, there is currently a lack of works showing the sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy of the myocardial strain assessment by stress echocardiography in 4D Strain mode.
