Abstract
In the past decades, echocardiography has appeared as an important modality in medical field to assess heart’s function and structures as well as for diagnosis and evaluation. Many image processing researches are done to enhance the imaging aspect and produce better quality of image. Accurateness in measuring tricuspid valve is an important issue, not only for surgical decision-making process but also in deciding the suitable surgical technique on patient such as valve implication or ring placement. In this paper, we will discuss on techniques that have been applied recently in detection of tricuspid valve’s leaflets and as for experiment, three dimensional transesophageal echocardiography images were used using pixel tracking technique and thin tissue detector. Our findings will be focusing more on those techniques applied on 3D echocardiography images from different angels and positions.
