Performance of 3-Dimensional Echocardiography in Measuring Left Ventricular Volumes and Ejection Fraction
Open accessAbstract
Objectives The primary aim of this systematic review is to objectively evaluate the test performance characteristics of three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) in measuring left ventricular (LV) volumes and ejection fraction (EF). Background Despite its growing use in clinical laboratories, the accuracy of 3DE has not been studied on a large scale. It is unclear if this technology offers an advantage over traditional two-dimensional (2D) methods. Methods We searched for studies that compared LV volumes and EF measured by 3DE and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging. A subset of those also compared standard 2D methods with CMR. We used meta-analyses to determine the overall bias and limits of agreement of LV end-diastolic volume (EDV), end-systolic volume (ESV), and EF measured by 3DE and 2D echocardiography (2DE). Results Twenty-three studies (1,638 echocardiograms) were included. The pooled biases ± 2 SDs for 3DE were −19.1 ± 34.2 ml, −10.1 ± 29.7 ml, and − 0.6 ± 11.8% for EDV, ESV, and EF, respectively. Nine studies also included data from 2DE, where the pooled biases were −48.2 ± 55.9 ml, −27.7 ± 45.7 ml, and 0.1 ± 13.9% for EDV, ESV, and EF, respectively. In this subset, the difference in bias between 3DE and 2D volumes was statistically significant (p = 0.01 for both EDV and ESV). The difference in variance was statistically significant (p < 0.001) for all 3 measurements. Conclusions Three-dimensional echocardiography underestimates volumes and has wide limits of agreement, but compared with traditional 2D methods in these carefully performed studies, 3DE is more accurate for volumes and more precise in all 3 measurements.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
