Abstract

BACKGROUND: Three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) allows accurate and reproducible measurements of right ventricular (RV) size and function. However, widespread implementation of 3DE in routine clinical practice is limited because the existing software packages are relatively time-consuming and skill demanding. The aim of this study was to test the accuracy and reproducibility of new machine learning- (ML-) based, fully automated software for three-dimensional quantification of RV size and function.
