Assessing Mitral Valve Area and Orifice Geometry in Calcific Mitral Stenosis: A New Solution by Real-Time Three-Dimensional Echocardiography

BACKGROUND: Planimetry of mitral valve area (MVA) is difficult in calcific mitral stenosis (CaMS) in which limiting orifice is near the annulus, and unlike rheumatic mitral stenosis (RhMS), does not present an area for planimetry at the leaflet tips. Moreover, pressure half time (PHT)-derived MVA (M...
