Three-dimensional speckle tracking imaging technology (3D-STI) was developed based
on techniques of real-time three-dimensional echocardiography and speckle tracking imaging. This
technology could track the movement of myocardium in three dimensions, and made the evaluation of
cardiac function more accurate and real. This paper introduced the basic concept and structural basis of
this new technology, and its clinical application, limitations and development prospects.
