Novel 3D Echocardiographic Technique for Mitral Calcium Mapping

Novel 3D Echocardiographic Technique for Mitral Calcium Mapping

Mitral annular calcification (MAC) is a common chronic degenerative process of the mitral valve fibrous support ring. MAC increases the risk of mitral valve dysfunction, all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, and worse outcomes in cardiac interventions. Echocardiography represents the first imaging...
