Quantitative three ‐dimensional echocardiographic analysis of the bicuspid aortic valve and aortic root: A single modality approach

ConclusionsSingle modality 3D echocardiography ‐based modeling allows for a quantitative description of the aortic valve and root geometry. This technique together with novel indices will improve our understanding of normal and pathologic geometry in the BAV population and may help to identify geometric predictors of adverse remodeling and gui de tailored surgical therapy.
