Benefit of 3D Vena Contracta Area over 2D-Based Echocardiographic Methods in Quantification of Functional Mitral Valve Regurgitation
Background: The two-dimensional proximal isovelocity surface area (2D PISA) method in the quantification of an effective regurgitation orifice area (EROA) has limitations in functional mitral valve regurgitation (FMR), particularly in non-circular coaptation defects. Objective: We aimed to validate...
