Abstract

Matrix array technology has brought three-dimensional echocardiography into the clinical practice of cardiology. Arguably, this advancement is most notable in the field of pediatric cardiology. Full-volume acquisitions now can be undertaken in the youngest of infants with excellent image quality. This article illustrates the clinical application of three-dimensional echocardiography in congenital heart disease.
