Optimal threshold of three-dimensional echocardiographic fully automated software for quantification of left ventricular volumes and ejection fraction: Comparison with cardiac magnetic resonance disk-area summation method and feature tracking method.

AIMS:Novel fully automated left chamber quantification software for three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) has a potential for reliable measurement of left ventricular (LV) volumes and ejection fraction (LVEF). However, the optimal setting of global LV endocardial border threshold has not been set...
