Abstract
Three-dimensional intracardiac echocardiography (3D ICE) has gained popularity in interventional cardiology given its improved spatial and temporal imaging in assessing intracardiac anatomy pre- and post-intervention. We describe the use of 3D ICE in the reduction of a Fontan fenestration with an Occlutech atrial flow regulator (AFR) device.
