| Abstract |
Three-dimensional (3D) printing is a rapidly evolving technology that has several potential applications in the diagnosis and management of cardiac disease. Recently, 3D printing (i.e. rapid prototyping) derived from 3D transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has become possible. Several steps need to be followed in order to perform echocardiography-derived 3D printing. These include logistics and organization of tools and materials, 3D TEE image acquisition, data export from the ultrasound system, format conversion, segmentation, generation of a stereolithography file, and printing. Due to the multiple steps involved and the specific software packages required for each one, it may be difficult to start implementing echocardiography-derived 3D printing. Therefore, we decided to describe the workflow for 3D printing of cardiac anatomical structures from 3D TEE data. Generation of these patient-specific cardiac anatomy models from echocardiographic data is a feasible, practical application of 3D printing technology. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 21. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 14 November 2018.
All research outputs
#1,793,692
of 25,832,559 outputs
Outputs from Echo Research & Practice
#40
of 274 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#38,810
of 447,820 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Echo Research & Practice
#1
of 7 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,832,559 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 93rd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 274 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 12.3. This one has done well, scoring higher than 85% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 447,820 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 91% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 7 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
