…methods evaluate left atrial and left ventricular function, geometry, and various Doppler parameters. Blod flow velocities across the mitral valve and mitral annular plane velocity…

…Figure 1). The posterior leaflet of the mitral valve has a semilunar shape and is attached to three fifths of the annular circumference. The posterior…

…Common structural consequences include left ventricular hypertrophy, left atrial enlargement, and abnormalities of diastolic filling. Mitral regurgitation may develop through papillary muscle displacement, annular dilatation…

…Left atrial dimension. TAPSE (Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Excursion) TAPSE is traditionally measured by placing the M mode cursor at the lateral tricuspid annulus from…
