Abstract
Congenital heart disease is the most common fetal congenital malformations; however, the prenatal rate detection still is low. The two-dimensional echocardiography is the "gold standard" exam to screening and diagnosis of congenital heart disease during the prenatal; however, this exam is operator-depending and it is realized only in high risk pregnancies. Spatio-temporal image correlation is a three-dimensional ultrasound software that analyses the fetal heart and your connections in the multiplanar and rendering modes; however, spatio-temporal image correlation too is operator-depending and time-consuming. We presenting a new three-dimensional software named Sonocubic fine to the screening of congenital heart disease. This software applies intelligent navigation technology to spatio-temporal image correlation volume datasets to automatically generate nine fetal echocardiography standard views. Thus, this new software tends to be less operator-depending and time-consuming.
Highlights
Congenital heart diseases (CHD) are the most common fetal congenital malformations, corresponding an incidence six times higher than chromosome anomalies and four times higher than neural tube defects[1]
The aim this study is to present the new software Sonocubic fine and its possible applications in screening of CHD
Virtual Intelligent Sonographer Assistance (VIS-Assistance) VIS-Assistant is an operator-independent tool that allows sonographic navigation and exploration of surrounding structures in each of fetal echocardiography standard views (Video 3). This algorithm is the particular importance in suspected cases of CHD, because it permits to find the best plane in each fetal echocardiography views
Summary
Congenital heart diseases (CHD) are the most common fetal congenital malformations, corresponding an incidence six times higher than chromosome anomalies and four times higher than neural tube defects[1]. Araujo Júnior E, et al - Sonocubic fine: new three-dimensional ultrasound software to the screening of congenital heart diseases. Spatio-temporal image correlation (STIC) is a software application that enables acquisition of fetal heart volume and vascular connection data. New software named Sonocubic fine (Medge Platforms Inc., New York, NY, USA) applies intelligent navigation technology to STIC volume datasets to automatically generate fetal echocardiography standard views. This new software tends to be less operator-depending and time-consuming.
