Why use Sonomicrometry for Cardiac
Function?
Sonomicrometry in
Practice
Dr.
Mark L. Dickstein: Beating
Heart: wire frame data Dr. Dickstein's research acquires data with a
TRX-32 (32 crystal channels with 4 analog input channels) and used
Sonometrics SonoVIEW, SonoXYZ, and SonoVOL software to analyze and develop the
three-dimensional data of the beating heart.
