Cardiovascular disease is showing signs of gradual rejuvenation due to the increasing pace and intensity and working pressure in modern life. Periodic check-ups for early detection as well as treatment plans for this disease is the first solution in health protection. Currently, 4D echocardiography is the most modern new technique to effectively check and detect cardiac conditions. 4D echocardiography is currently being applied at Vinmec Hai Phong International General Hospital.
1. What is a 4D Echocardiogram?
4D echocardiography is also known as real-time 3D echocardiography: real-time three-dimensional echocardiography.
This is an imaging probe that helps to diagnose the functional and morphological status of cardiac structures in three dimensions using a matrix probe with a large number of radiographic elements providing images with high resolution, light and dark scales and good contrast.
2. Designated objects to apply
All cases requiring assessment of cardiac morphology and function can use 4D echocardiography.
In particular, this technique can be applied to all cases without contraindications to any object.
3. Outstanding advantages of 4D . echocardiography
4D echocardiography gives images with high resolution, light and dark scales and good contrast. No bleeding. Not harmful by radiation. It can be done more than once on the same patient. Gives highly reliable results if performed by a well-trained person, and respects the rules of the technique.
4. Requirements when preparing for implementation
In order for the implementation of the 4D echocardiography technique to be safe, accurate and effective, the preparation process needs to ensure the following requirements:
The implementing staff are doctors well trained in Ultrasound technique 4D heart . Having a technician or assistant to help prepare and guide the patient About facilities: the echocardiogram room is equipped with an air conditioner, a dehumidifier, a humidity meter and a room temperature meter, with a sink. Hands with soap and sanitizer. Prepare a 4D echocardiogram with echocardiogram transducers for adults and children, especially with a 3D echocardiogram transducer Have an electrocardiogram connected to the ultrasound machine, specialized microprocessor software , there is an image storage unit, a computer, a printer, and A4 paper to type the results and print the results.
5. Why should 4D echocardiography at Vinmec Hai Phong?
Vinmec Hai Phong International General Hospital is equipped with a 4D ultrasound machine with modern features, high resolution, probe size, thickness, ability to pump blood, heart activities, .. Thanks to that, it helps to detect and diagnose abnormalities or complex pathologies of the heart in the most accurate way.
Accompanying the most modern ultrasound machine today is a system of facilities with a dedicated ultrasound room, computer software connected to the machine allowing accurate signal transmission. Especially, the 4D ultrasound technique is performed by a team of professionally trained doctors, with absolute respect for technical rules. Therefore, the results obtained have very high accuracy, which is the basis for the doctor to give the best solution for the patient.
