MITRAL REGURGITATION Quantitation of mitral regurgitation by Doppler echocardiography
The evaluation and care of patients with mitral regurgitation would be facilitated by an easy, reproducible and noninvasive method that could quantitate the hemodynamic burden. In this study, we describe a new Doppler echocardiographic method that measures the regurgitant fraction and we compare it with angiographic and scintigraphic methods. A total of 27 patients with mitral regurgitation wer...
متن کاملDegenerative mitral valve regurgitation: surgical echocardiography.
Echocardiography is an essential tool in managing patients with mitral regurgitation. It allows identification and precise summation of anatomic lesions that lead to valve dysfunction. In this article, we highlight important aspects of mitral valve anatomy and pathophysiology as they pertain to surgical repair and discuss the critical role of echocardiography in surgical planning and assessment...
متن کاملLive 3D echocardiography: a replacement for traditional 2D echocardiography?
OBJECTIVE We describe the development of real-time 3D imaging and review the previously used versions of 3D echocardiography so that the reader will appreciate why current developments truly do represent a quantum leap in the technology. CONCLUSION Three-dimensional echocardiography has now been shown to have several advantages over 2D echocardiography, particularly for volume measurements, v...
متن کامل3D echocardiography for traumatic tricuspid regurgitation.
T H E T R I C U S P I D V A L V E ( T V ) I S A C O M P L E X S T R U C T U R E . Unlike mitral and aortic valves, simultaneous visualization of the 3 TV leaflets cannot be achieved with 2-dimensional echocardiography (2DE) due to valve orientation with reference to the imaging planes. No 2D echo plane is parallel to the tricuspid valve. Therefore, there is no short-axis view for the tricuspid ...
متن کاملAssessment of Mitral Valve Complex by Three-Dimensional Echocardiography: Therapeutic Strategy for Functional Mitral Regurgitation
The mitral valve complex is consisted of annulus, leaflets, chordae tendineae, papillary muscle (PMs) and surrounding left ventricle. Functional mitral regurgitation (MR) results from left ventricular remodeling such as dilatation or distortion, which displaces the PMs and then tethers the mitral leaflets, restricting leaflet coaptation. Undersized annuloplasty, which has been widely accepted a...
