The assessment of mitral valve disease: a guideline from the British Society of Echocardiography
Echo Research and Practice, 2021 Mitral valve disease is common. Mitral regurgitation is the second most frequent indication for valve surgery in Europe and despite the decline of rheumatic fever in Western societies, mitral stenosis of any aetiology is a regular finding in all echo ...

Anatomy of the mitral valve: understanding the mitral valve complex in mitral regurgitation [PDF]
European Journal of Echocardiography, 2010 Imaging the mitral valve requires an understanding of the normal anatomy and how this complex structure is altered by disease states. Mitral regurgitation is increasingly prevalent. Despite the fall in rheumatic disease, it is the second most common valvular lesion seen in adults in Europe.
