Biplane angiographic and transthoracic echocardiographic volume calculations have shown to be sufficiently reliable in symmetric hearts; however, they are unreliable in the presence of aneurysmatic distortions. Multiplane transoesophageal echocardiography offers unobstructed cross-sectional views of the heart from one stable transducer position with the potential of imaging irregular cavity forms more accurately. It was the purpose of this in vitro study to compare the precision of multiplanar transoesophageal echocardiography to that of biplane angiography in determining left ventricular volumes, especially in aneurysmatic models.
