A new computerized image processing system enabled three-dimensional visualization and volume calculation of cardiac structures using >7 original two-dimensional echocardiograms in parallel planes.
A novel computerized image processing system enables automatic three-dimensional visualization and volume calculation of cardiac structures from parallel two-dimensional echocardiograms.
A new computerized image processing system was developed and applied clinically for three-dimensional visualization and volume calculation of cardiac structures, which were recorded in more than seven original two-dimensional echocardiograms in parallel planes. Three-dimensional display of this series of original two-dimensional echocardiograms was performed automatically using an overlaid display with different gray levels designating depths. The limitation of the present study was in the recording of original two-dimensional echocardiograms in parallel planes.
Matsumoto et al. (Wed,) conducted a other in Cardiac structures. Computerized image processing system for three-dimensional echocardiography was evaluated on Spatial visualization and volume calculation. A new computerized image processing system enabled three-dimensional visualization and volume calculation of cardiac structures using >7 original two-dimensional echocardiograms in parallel planes.
