“…Three-dimensional assessment of ventricular and atrial volumes is extremely precise compared to cardiac magnetic resonance [21]. Semi-automated or automated 3D heart models are widespread among different vendors [22], allowing fast and reproducible volume quantification [23] and systolic function quantification.…”

Mitral valve regurgitation (MR) is a multifaceted valvular heart disease. Echocardiography plays a central role in etiology assessment, severity quantification, treatment candidacy, outcome evaluation, and patient follow-up. In this review, we describe the comprehensive echocardiographic assessment of MR, including transthoracic (TTE) and transesophageal (TEE) approaches, 2D and 3D modalities, strain imaging, stress echocardiography, and artificial intelligence (AI) applications. Transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (TEER) has been established as a key therapy for patients with severe, symptomatic MR and high surgical risk. TEER is performed under TEE guidance. We outline a practical overview of echocardiographic guidance on TEER.

“…The current normative values are derived from 2Dechocardiography. With the advent of artificial intelligence and automated 3D approach to LV chamber quantification (Figure 2), echocardiographic quantification practice will be changed soon and new and gender-specific cut-off values will be proposed (41).…”

Echocardiography is the most validated, non-invasive and used approach to assess left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Alternative methods, specifically magnetic resonance imaging, provide high cost and practical challenges in large scale clinical application. To include a wide range of physiological and pathological conditions, LVH should be considered in conjunction with the LV remodeling assessment. The universally known 2-group classification of LVH only considers the estimation of LV mass and relative wall thickness (RWT) to be classifying variables. However, knowledge of the 2-group patterns provides particularly limited incremental prognostic information beyond LVH. Conversely, LV enlargement conveys independent prognostic utility beyond LV mass for incident heart failure. Therefore, a 4-group LVH subdivision based on LV mass, LV volume, and RWT has been recently suggested. This novel LVH classification is characterized by distinct differences in cardiac function, allowing clinicians to distinguish between different LV hemodynamic stress adaptations in various cardiovascular diseases. The new 4-group LVH classification has the advantage of optimizing the LVH diagnostic approach and the potential to improve the identification of maladaptive responses that warrant targeted therapy. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on clinical value of this refinement of the LVH classification, emphasizing the role of echocardiography in applying contemporary proposed indexation methods and partition values.

“…However, for these studies, 3D LV volume datasets were acquired with apparatus from different vendors, and LV volumes were analyzed using a variety of software. Although advancements in 3DE technology and analysis software have resulted in improved image quality and progress in reproducibility and accuracy for LV volume analysis [35][36][37], differences in vendors of the equipment used for acquisition of the volume sets and of software used for analyses may have affected the results of 3D LV volume analysis [38]. The final reports from the WASE study on 3D LV analysis are, therefore, awaited.…”

Echocardiography is used worldwide to evaluate cardiac size and function. To determine what values are abnormal, it is essential to establish normal reference values for echocardiography. The current guidelines for chamber quantification specify normative values for cardiac chambers and recommend that gender and body size be taken into account. However, these normative data were established using databases for which a variety of measurement methods were used and the majority of subjects consisted of Whites in Europe and the United States. However, several regional studies from other countries suggest that cardiac size varies globally. To overcome these limitations, the Normal Reference Ranges for Echocardiography study and the World Alliance of Societies of Echocardiography Normal Values study have recently been conducted to examine similarities and differences in cardiac chamber size and to establish normal reference values while taking worldwide diversity into account. The results from these studies have demonstrated that standardization of normal reference values for cardiac size is important. This review article aims to summarize the current status of normative echocardiographic values for cardiac chamber size.
