THREE-DIMENSIONAL TRANSTHORACIC ECHOCARDIOGRAPHIC QUANTIFICATION OF TRICUSPID REGURGITATION ORIFICE AREA: COMPARISON WITH CONVENTIONAL TWO-DIMENSIONAL TRANSTHORACIC ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY-DERIVED PARAMETERS

THREE-DIMENSIONAL TRANSTHORACIC ECHOCARDIOGRAPHIC QUANTIFICATION OF TRICUSPID REGURGITATION ORIFICE AREA: COMPARISON WITH CONVENTIONAL TWO-DIMENSIONAL TRANSTHORACIC ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY-DERIVED PARAMETERS

Methods Thirty-eight patients without atrial fibrillation with > mild TR underwent 2D and 3D color Doppler echocardiography. 2D quantification included TR jet area/right atrial area ratio, vena contracta width, and effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) using flow convergence method. 3D guided...

Zusammenfassung:Methods Thirty-eight patients without atrial fibrillation with > mild TR underwent 2D and 3D color Doppler echocardiography. 2D quantification included TR jet area/right atrial area ratio, vena contracta width, and effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) using flow convergence method. 3D guided direct planimetry of the TR color jet was performed to measure AROA.
