Abstract:
Mitral regurgitation (MR) is one of the most common valve lesions. Echocardiography can effectively evaluate the valve structure and reflux, and provide a basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment. Compared with conventional echocardiography, the quantitative technique of three-dimensional echocardiography can better describe the valve structure and function, and more accurately assess the degree of reflux, which is of great significance for clinical treatment, decisions and disease risk stratification. The research progresses of quantitative evaluation of valve structure and reflux in patients with mitral regurgitation by three-dimensional echocardiography were reviewed in this article.
