Abstract

Three-dimensional (3D) left ventricular (LV) myocardial strain measurements using transthoracic 3D echocardiography speckle tracking analysis have several advantages over two-dimensional (2D) LV strain measurements, because 3D strain values are derived from the entire LV myocardium, yielding more accurate estimates of global and regional LV function. In this review article, we summarize the current status of 3D LV myocardial strain. Specifically, we describe how 3D LV strain analysis is performed. Next, we compare characteristics of 2D and 3D strain, and we explain validation of 3D strain measurements, feasibility and measurement differences between 2D and 3D strain, reference values of 3D strain, and its applications in several clinical scenarios. In some parts of this review, we used a meta-analysis to draw reliable conclusions. We also describe the added value of 3D over 2D strain in several specific pathologies and prognoses. Finally, we discuss novel techniques using 3D strain and suggest its future directions.
