Study of Degenerative Mitral Regurgitation Using Three‐Dimensional Echocardiography and EchoPAC GE Health Care Software 4D Auto MVQ: Comparison Between Transthoracic and Transesophageal Examination
In the selected population, 3D TTE demonstrated diagnostic accuracy comparable to transesophageal echocardiography in identifying mitral valve lesions. Furthermore, with the use of dedicated 3D software, TTE alone may provide a comprehensive and noninvasive preoperative evaluation, particularly for static annular parameters. Further studies are warranted to corroborate these findings.
