Abstract:
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES:Because of the complex relationships between the dynamic three-dimensional cardiac surface shape and its projected image, errors arise with the use of two-dimensional silhouettes to measure displacements of the heart. The character and frequency of such errors are examined. METHODS:A high-precision x-ray scatter imaging technique was used to reconstruct the three-dimensional shape of the left ventricular free wall throughout the cardiac cycle. Displacements of the three-dimensional surface were then compared with those on the two-dimensional projected silhouette. Silhouette displacement errors were determined as a function of time during the cardiac cycle and variability between hearts. RESULTS:Differences between silhouette measurements and those on the cardiac surface range from 0% to 125% of peak-to-peak displacements occur, along 33% to 75% of the silhouette contours and cover 66% of the cardiac cycle. CONCLUSION:Two-dimensional silhouette displacements provide inconsistent measurements of motion patterns on the three-dimensional cardiac surface.
