title: Three-dimensional echocardiography: an alternative imaging choice for evaluation of tricuspid valve disorders.
abstract: This article presents an approach to real-time three-dimensional imaging of the tricuspid valve from three different views. This is followed by some representative cases that illustrate these views and some unique tricuspid valve abnormalities, including one case of corrected transposition.
