“…Nonetheless, the use of 3D RV EF in the literature as a reference standard is common because of its feasibility and diagnostic accuracy. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] The second limitation of this study was the lack of clinical correlation. This was an intraoperative study that was not powered to determine differences in clinical outcomes such as ventilator times, hospital lengths of stay, or mortality.…”

“…Three-dimensional (3D) RV EF has been shown to be feasible and accurate with TEE. 6,7 This modality often has been used in the literature as a reference standard in studies comparing echocardiographic methods of quantifying RV dysfunction. [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] Furthermore, echocardiography-based 3D RV EF has been identified as an independent risk factor for both cardiac death and major adverse cardiac events.…”

“…For experienced echocardiographers with access to special software, it is recommended to use 3D-derived right ventricular EF [ 14 ]. Good accuracy and correlation for 3D right ventricular function in cardiac surgical patients with preoperative 3D transthoracic echocardiography examinations have been shown in the perioperative setting [ 19 , 20 ]. The main limitations are the need for special software and image quality.…”

Purpose of ReviewThis review aims to highlight the general and specific strengths and limitations of intraoperative 3D echocardiography. This article explains the value of real-time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (RT 3D TEE) during cardiac surgery and cardiac interventions.Recent FindingsRecently published recommendations and guidelines include the use of RT 3D TEE. RT 3 D TEE provides additional value particularly for guidance during cardiac interventions (i.e., transcatheter mitral valve repair, left atrial appendix and atrial septal defect closures), assessment of the mitral valve in surgical repair, measurement of left ventricular outflow tract area for transcatheter valvular replacements, and estimating right and left ventricular volumes and function. The exact localization of paravalvular leakage is another strength of RT 3D TEE. The major limitation is the reduced temporal resolution compared to 2D TEE.SummaryThree-dimensional echocardiography is a powerful tool that improves communication and accurate measurements of cardiac structures.

“…Recent work has shown that 3D TEE assessment of the RV and dedicated RV quantification software can be applied to reliably represent the complex geometry of the RV. Therefore, this approach constitutes a valuable tool for the assessment of the RV function during the perioperative period [22].…”

The first human three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (3D TEE) was reported in 1992. Ever since, technologic advances have revolutionized this echocardiographic imaging modality. Today, real-time 3D TEE (RT-3D TEE) represents a novel clinical and intuitively educational perioperative cardiovascular imaging tool. In addition, live 3D TEE adds significantly to the perioperative communication between cardiac surgeons and echocardiographer. Its unique ability of real-time acquisition and accurate identification of precise cardiac pathology, together with its ability to promptly quantify 3D datasets using builtin software, has greatly helped to transition 3D TEE into the standard of perioperative care. The recent development of percutaneous procedures such as valve implantations and repairs also benefit from 3D TEE quantification and guidance. This article reviews the available 3D TEE acquisition modes, newest advances in 3D technology, and the utility of 3D TEE in different settings of cardiac procedures.
