Real-time 3D echocardiografie: een extra dimensie in de echografische diagnose van aangeboren hartafwijkingen
This thesis investigates the role that real-time 3D echocardiography might play in the analysis of structural heart disease. The 3D echocardiographic assessment of patients with a variety of congenital heart disease is described, with specific focus on description and measurement of intracardiac anatomy and functional assessment. In chapter 1, the outline of the thesis is given. This thesis focuses on the feasibility and clinical applicability of real-time 3D echocardiography in daily patient care for congenital heart disease and whether 3D echocardiographic images give a reliable reflection of the intracardiac anatomy in a wide variety of congenital heart defects.
