Abstract

This study was designed to compare two methods for quantifying right ventricular (RV) geometry and function obtained from real-time three-dimensional echocardiography in patients with acute decompensated heart failure and implanted intracardiac devices. 42 patients (29 men and 13 women) aged 29 to 78 years with acute heart failure were included into the research. Three-dimensional reconstruction RT-4DE Tom Tec revealed several advantages in determining the volume and right ventricular function in comparison with 4-D LV Echo PAC program in cases of complicated geometry of endocardial contour of the right ventricle.
