荷兰学者van den Bosch等应用实时三维超声心动图(RT-3DE)对房间隔缺损患者进行缺损形态的定量评估,旨在为手术医师提供更加量化的形态学指标。45例房间隔缺损患者被纳入研究,其中43例成功实施RT-3DE,并随机分配到外科开胸组和经导管封堵组。术后发现,RT-3DE所测缺损的最大径线 Dutch scholar van den Bosch et al. Used quantitative real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT-3DE) to quantitatively evaluate the defect morphology in patients with atrial septal defects to provide surgeons with more quantitative morphological indicators. Forty-five patients with atrial septal defect were included in the study, 43 of whom were successfully performed RT-3DE and were randomized to surgical thoracotomy and transcatheter closure. After surgery, RT-3DE measured the largest diameter of the defect
