When treating structural heart disease, advanced real-time 3D TEE and True Volume color Doppler imaging is required to visualize form, function, and flow in one volume view – without compromise. In transcatheter approaches, however, navigation relies on live fluoroscopy too. With TrueFusion1, add the relevant anatomical and functional landmarks easily from our True Volume TEE to your live fluoroscopy.

Features & Benefits
Reduce complexity in challenging procedures
- eSie Sync efficiently integrates co-registration of Artis imaging and ACUSON SC2000™ ultrasound system, PRIME edition in the workflow with machine learning-based probe detection and automated registration updates
- TEE landmarks can be marked directly on the ACUSON SC2000™ PRIME and sent for fusion1 with the Artis live fluoroscopy images
- Assessment of valvular anatomy with one-click eSie Valves modeling provides automated landmarks for fusion with live fluoroscopy
- Synchronizing the image orientation of TEE and angio facilitates orientation and communication within the team
- With TrueFusion 2.02, live ultrasound is combined with color doppler image
- Live 3D-TEE image is automatically fused with angiography image once the function image overlay is activated

Clinical Use
Navigate with improved anatomical orientation
- TrueFusion1 can shorten the learning curve in challenging procedures as it enables more intuitive anatomical orientation
- Synchronization of TEE and angio image orientation allows deriving implantation angles from TEE with scope for contrast and fluoro time savings
- Standardized assessment of valve morphology with eSie Valves™ modeling and fusion of relevant structures supports accurate device placement
Potential to save contrast and fluoro time
- Use of TrueFusion1 may significantly reduce procedure time and is associated with a significant reduction of contrast medium in patients undergoing LAAC3
Landmarks placed at interatrial septum, LAA ostium and landing zone, and live echo image is overlaid
Landmarks placed at interatrial septum and on mitral annulus
Angulation adjustment and device-guidance through fusion of annulus landmarks from TEE
Synchronized views with annulus landmarks to adjust angulation without angiography
