May enhance diagnostic precision in congenital heart disease; extends prior reviews but leaves open prospective outcome validation.
This review highlights key technological evolutions in pediatric cardiac imaging, such as 3D echocardiography, tissue Doppler, MRI, and CT, which enhance the anatomical and functional assessment of congenital heart disease.
Mertens et al. (2007) conducted a review in Congenital heart disease. Pediatric cardiac imaging techniques (ICE, 3D echocardiography, tissue Doppler, MRI, CT) was evaluated. Recent advancements in pediatric cardiac imaging, including 3D echocardiography, tissue Doppler, MRI, and CT, have significantly improved the anatomical and functional assessment of congenital heart disease.
