Abstract

Three-dimensional echocardiography has an increasing role in the management of patients with congenital heart disease. Technical advances mean the technique can be applied from fetal life through to adulthood. Clinical applications relate both to the assessment of morphology and cardiac function. This is being applied to diagnostic evaluation, serial follow up and procedural guidance in the catheterization laboratory and operating room. Developments in this field are reviewed with emphasis on recent data and future perspectives.
