Figure 7 Examples of 3D Renderings of the Mitral Valve Obtained From 3D-TEE Data Set With Software Designed for Quantitative Analysis of the Mitral Apparatus

Examples of 3D renderings of the mitral valve obtained from 3D-TEE dataset using software designed for quantitative analysis of the mitral apparatus. (Top, Left) Antero-posterior diameter is shown in green. (Top, Right) Annular height. (Bottom Left) Anterior mitral leaflet surface area (hatched) with posterior middle scallop leaflet prolapse. (Bottom, Right) Angle between the mitral and aortic annuli. A = anterior, P = posterior, AL = anterolateral, PM = posteromedial, Ao = aorta, TEE = transesophageal echocardiography.
