Abstract:
The assessment of right heart function plays an important role in diagnoses, therapeutic decision-making, curative effects and prognoses of many congenital and acquired heart diseases. Recently, a lot of new techniques of echocardiography have been used to evaluate right heart function, such as DTI, MPI, 3-DE, AQ and CUS, which all have their own advantages and disadvantages.
