Echocardiographic assessment of mitral regurgitation: general considerations
Cardiol Clin.
2013 May.
Abstract
Echocardiography is undoubtedly one of the main tools used in assessment of mitral regurgitation (MR) because it allows characterization of valvular morphology, assessment of the severity of the regurgitation, and its secondary effects. In this article we present an overview of the echocardiographic assessment of MR.
