Moving beyond two-dimensional screens to interactive three-dimensional visualization in congenital heart disease

Abstract Beginning with the discovery of X-rays to the development of three-dimensional (3D) imaging, improvements in acquisition, post-processing, and visualization have provided clinicians with detailed information for increasingly accurate medical diagnosis and clinical management.

Description
Summary:Abstract Beginning with the discovery of X-rays to the development of three-dimensional (3D) imaging, improvements in acquisition, post-processing, and visualization have provided clinicians with detailed information for increasingly accurate medical diagnosis and clinical management. This paper highlights advances in imaging technologies for congenital heart disease (CHD), medical adoption, and future developments required to improve pre-procedural and intra-procedural guidance.
