Increasing Temporal Resolution of 3D Transesophageal Ultrasound by Rigid Body Registration of Sequential, Temporally Offset Sequences [PDF]
A description of mitral valve function requires both an accurate anatomical description of the three-dimensional (3D) structure as well as a description of the leaflets' rapid motion.

Mitral valve anatomy: implications for transcatheter mitral valve interventions [PDF]
Mitral regurgitation is a common valvular heart disease and its prevalence is expected to increase with population ageing. Percutaneous techniques for the treatment of mitral regurgitation are emerging as an alternative therapeutic option. However, the mitral valve is a complex structure, and a comprehensive understanding of the anatomy of the mitral ...

A retrospective analysis of mitral valve pathology in the setting of bicuspid aortic valves
The therapeutic implications of bicuspid aortic valve associations have come under scrutiny in the transcatheter aortic valve implantation era. We evaluate the spectrum of mitral valve disease in patients with bicuspid aortic valves to determine the need
