Does sonomicrometry array localization accurately measure the 3-D coordinates of multiple cardiac locations compared to standard reference methods?

Population

Mathematical simulations, water bath, ex vivo hearts, and living hearts

Intervention

Sonomicrometry array localization (SAL) using a modified digitally controlled sonomicrometer and multidimensional scaling (MDS)

Comparator

Caliper measurement (in water bath) and radiography (in ex vivo and in vivo hearts)

Outcome

Correlation of 3-D coordinate measurements between SAL and reference methodssurrogate

Sonomicrometry array localization is a feasible and accurate method for measuring the 3-D coordinates of multiple cardiac locations, with potential applications in assessing myocardial deformation and remodeling.
