From: Eleven fetal echocardiographic planes using 4-dimensional ultrasound with spatio-temporal image correlation (STIC): a logical approach to fetal heart volume analysis

Figure 4

After standardization of fetal position in the STIC volume dataset to place the fetus in the exact dorsal supine position, navigating systematically in the volume usually provides a reproducible image from a corresponded movement. Placing the reference dot at the aortic valve in the five-chamber view in plane A and spin the volume around y-axis 15-30 degrees simultaneously displays the LVOT in plane A and short axis of the great vessels in plane B.
