The temporal resolution can be improved by using a “stitched” 3D acquisition over 4-6 heart beats with some vendors. Live 3D Zoom is probably the most important 3D imaging modality for MV morphology assessment by 3D TEE. It is the modality of choice when analyzing valvular morphology in SMR patients. Care should be taken to optimize the spatial and temporal resolution of the acquired ... ................
