The Role of 2D and 3D Echo in Mitral Stenosis
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2021 Mitral stenosis is an important cause of heart valve disease globally. Echocardiography is the main imaging modality used to diagnose and assess the severity and hemodynamic consequences of mitral stenosis as well as valve morphology.

Neurohormonal Activation and Left Atrium Remodeling in Mitral Stenosis
Majalah Kardiologi Indonesia, 2017 Mitral stenosis is closely related with the hemodynamic consequences of obstructed mitral leaflet. Definitive therapy in mitral stenosis is mechanical intervention. Late presentation of mitral stenosis patients to medical facilities due to limited health

Automatic Time‐Resolved Cardiovascular Segmentation of 4D Flow MRI Using Deep Learning
Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 57, Issue 1, Page 191-203, January 2023., 2023 Background Segmenting the whole heart over the cardiac cycle in 4D flow MRI is a challenging and time‐consuming process, as there is considerable motion and limited contrast between blood and tissue. Purpose To develop and evaluate a deep learning‐based segmentation method to automatically segment the cardiac chambers and great thoracic vessels from 4D

Degenerative Mitral Stenosis Versus Rheumatic Mitral Stenosis
The American Journal of Cardiology, 2020 Mitral stenosis is classically caused by rheumatic disease (RMS). However, degenerative mitral stenosis (DMS) is increasingly encountered, particularly in developed countries with aging populations. The aim of this study was to compare clinical and echocardiographic characteristics between the 2 entities.

Iatrogenic mitral stenosis following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR)
Indian Heart Journal, 2015 A 57 year old female underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for severe aortic stenosis. Mild iatrogenic mitral stenosis was noted intraoperatively. Attempts to reposition the device were hampered by aortic angulation.
