Key result
Spatio-temporal image correlation rendering mode visualized the specific location and surrounding structure of ventricular septal defects in 20 fetuses, allowing for more detailed classification.
Why the study?
Traditional 2D echocardiography has limitations in accurately diagnosing ventricular septal defect, prompting the need for spatio-temporal image correlation technology to visualize defect location and surrounding structures.
Does spatio-temporal image correlation (STIC) rendering mode improve the visualization and classification of ventricular septal defects in fetuses compared to 2D echocardiography?

STIC rendering mode enhances conventional 2D echocardiography by providing detailed 3D visualization of ventricular septal defects in fetuses, aiding in precise anatomical classification.
The limitations of traditional two‐dimensional (2D) echocardiography in accurate diagnosis of ventricular septal defect (VSD) prompt the necessity of spatio‐temporal image correlation (STIC) technology. Our study attemped to reconstruct the volume data of VSD using STIC rendering mode, and dynamically display the specific location and surrounding structure of VSD, in order to assist conventional 2D echocardiography. A total of 20 fetuses diagnosed as VSD using 2D echocardiography were enrolled in our study. Multiplane imaging mode was applied to obtain 2D four‐chamber view, five‐chamber view, and main artery short‐axis view. STIC rendering mode was performed to collect volume data and visualize the shape, specific location and surrounding structure of VSD. A more detailed VSD classification for 20 VSD cases was identified. Based on the specific location and surrounding structure under STIC images, they were further subdivided into different types. STIC rendering mode intuitively showed the specific shape and surrounding structure of VSD. STIC technology can be used for definite classification and diagnosis of VSD, combining with 2D echocardiography to make a better therapeutic intervention in clinical practice. Clin.
