Background Three dimensional (3D) transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) has been validated to have good agreement with cardiac magnetic resonance for the assessment of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) with good interobserver reproducibility. Despite the increased use of perioperative transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE), TEE assessment of left ventricular (LV) function and volumes have never been validated against 3D TTE. Objective To evaluate whether 3D TEE measurement of LV function shows better agreement with 3DTTE, compared to 2DBiplane and X-plane TEE. Methods A total of 60 patients were included from a single large volume tertiary center, the mean age of 71.9 years, 40% were female; TTE and TEE studies were performed within one week. LV function parameters including LV EF, LV end-diastolic (LVEDV) and end systolic volumes (LVESV), stroke volumes (SV) were calculated with Qlab version 9, and 3DQ advanced software, with semi-automated endocardial contours for 3D TTE and 3D TEE. LV function parameters for 2D X-plane and Biplane TEE data sets were assessed using AGFA with manual endocardial contours. Mean differences were compared with paired, two-tail T-test, and limits of agreement were determined using the Bland-Altman analysis. Correlation between TTE and TEE values were tested using Pearson’s correlation test. Results 3D transthoracic LV EDV, ESV, SV, and EF respectively were 112± 46 ml, 57 ±32 ml, 55± 55 ml, and 51 ±11%. Comparisons and correlations between TTE and TEE for the four measures were: for EDV bias = 9.94 ml and 95% lower and upper limits of agreements being -68.7 and 88.5 ml, and r= 0.7; for ESV the bias was -0.3 ml with 95% lower and upper limits of agreements being -55 to 55 ml, and r = 0.7: for stroke volume bias= 0.2 with 95% lower and upper limits of agreements being -37 to 67 ml, and r = 0.2; for LVEF the bias was 2.7% with 95% lower and upper limits of agreements being -18.9% to 24.3%, and r= 0.7 (Fig) Conclusion Left ventricular volumetric assessments during 3D transesophageal echocardiography is not only feasible but also comparable to 3D transthoracic echocardiography obtained LV volumes and EF. Data from multicenter studies with a larger number of subjects are needed to corroborate our findings. Abstract P306 Figure. Fig. 3D LV volumes by 3D TEE vs. 3D TTE
