Abstract
Echocardiography remains the main tool for noninvasive cardiac evaluation. Advances in echo technology and techniques offer new information, which will impact both the timing and method of surgical intervention. Three-dimensional echocardiography, in particular, provides improved tools for quantification both of volumes and of flows. Geometrical relations necessary for understanding functional abnormalities are also preserved with three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography. Finally 3D echocardiography also provides a unique tool for guiding minimally invasive interventions.
