We studied the usefulness and reproducibility of realtime 3-dimensional (3D) echocardiography (RT3DE) for evaluating left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony, and compared its results with Doppler tissue image (DTI) indices. Full-volume RT3DE data sets and 2-dimensional DTI from apical window were obtained in 122 participants. Using fast 3D border detection software, time to minimum systolic volume (Tmsv) was semiautomatically calculated in each region from a 17-segment model. Several dyssynchrony indices were then calculated: Tmsv-16SD, the SD of Tmsv in 16 of 17 segments, excluding the apical cap; Tmsv-12SD, the SD of Tmsv of 6 basal and 6 middle segments; and Tmsv-6SD, the SD of Tmsv of 6 basal segments. These dyssynchrony indices of RT3DE were then compared with two dyssynchrony indices measured by DTI: time to peak systolic velocity (TTPV)-12SD, the SD of time to peak systolic velocity of 12 LV segments; and time to cross over point of temporal axis (TTCO)-12SD, the SD of time to crossover point of temporal axis. RT3DE data was quantitatively analyzed in 117 of 122 patients. Tmsv-16SD (35 +/- 34 milliseconds) was significantly longer compared with Tmsv-12SD (27 +/- 30 milliseconds, P
