Pulsed Doppler indices were devised in order to grade the severity of mitral regurgitation on
a quantitative basis. Indices were obtained by mapping the regurgitant jet by recording …

Sensitivity and specificity of detection of mitral regurgitation was assessed by range-gated
Doppler echocardiography. The degree of mitral regurgitation was also estimated by the …

The evaluation and care of patients with mitral regurgitation would be facilitated by an easy,
reproducible and noninvasive method that could quantitate the hemodynamic burden. In this …

The value of Doppler echocardiography for the non-invasive diagnosis of mitral regurgitation
was studied blindly in 161 consecutive invasively investigated adult patients. Regurgitation …

We evaluated 147 patients with adequate color Doppler and angiographic studies for mitral
regurgitation. Sixty-five patients had no mitral regurgitation by both color Doppler and …

We evaluated patients with mitral regurgitation by color-coded Doppler echocardiography
using a semiquantitative score system, which is useful in the clinical setting, by providing …

The sensitivity and specificity of pulsed Doppler echocardiography (PDE) in diagnosis and
estimation of the severity of mitral regurgitation in the presence of rheumatic mitral stenosis …

The potential value ofpulsed Doppler echocardiography in the evaluation of mitral valve
lesions was studied before cardiac catheterisation in 64 patients with a clinical diagnosis …

Measurements of mitral and aortic valve flows were obtained with two-dimensional Doppler
echocardiography in 25 patients with isolated mitral (n= 19) or aortic (n= 6) regurgitation and …

In an attempt to develop a new approach to the non-invasive measurement of mitral
regurgitation, Doppler echocardiography and left ventriculography were performed in 20 …
