ABSTRACT
The incorporation of 3D imaging into diagnostic and interventional echocardiography has rapidly expanded in recent years. Applications such as multiplanar reconstruction that were once considered research tools and required off-cart analysis can now readily be performed at the point of image acquisition and in real-time during live image acquisition for procedural guidance. While the application and quality of 3D images have significantly improved in recent years, there remains a noticeable lag in the evolution of artificial intelligence that would further simplify the interpretative processes, both during live sessions and offline analyses. Users are still required to mentally reconstruct sliced images during multiplanar reconstruction based on color-coded planes. While this may be an effortless task for the seasoned echocardiographer, it can be a challenging task for echocardiographers who are less familiar with 3D imaging and multiplanar reconstruction. This article describes the utility of using 3D markers to aid in image interpretation.
