  • Title: Measurement of mitral valve area in mitral stenosis by Doppler ultrasound.
    Author: Robson DJ, Rodman M, Flaxman JC, Mayhew FA.
    Journal: Eur Heart J; 1985 Sep; 6(9):791-4. PubMed ID: 4076215.
    Abstract:
    The mitral valve area in mitral stenosis was determined from Doppler velocity recordings and by cross-sectional echocardiography. There was good agreement (r = 0.93) between the two methods in 18 adult patients with mitral stenosis. The results confirm that the non-invasive continuous wave Doppler ultrasound technique is of diagnostic value in the assessment of mitral stenosis.
