| Research Abstract |
Two-dimensional echocardiography is a useful method for noninvasive diagnosis of congenital heart disease. As the number of emergency operation without catheterization for new born patients with severe congenital heart disease has been increased, the detail and correct information about the malformed heart is required. We compared multiple cross-sections of the new born heart of rat, which was made using a frozen section technique, with the image of two-dimensional echocardiography in human neonates. Each portion of intra and peri-cardiac structure was identified by this method. Then we advanced to identify cross-section of fetal heart of rat by using the same technique. As a results, detailed anatomical identification has been possible in a neonatal and fetal heart. A case with complete endocardial cushion defect was correctly diagnosed by two-dimensional echocardiography in utero.
