Mitral valve coaptation and its relationship to late diastolic flow: A color Doppler and vector flow map echocardiographic study in normal subjects.
Background Three competing theories about the mechanism of mitral coaptation in normal subjects were evaluated by color Doppler and vector flow mapping ( VFM): (1) beginning of ventricular ( LV) ejection, (2) 'breaking of the jet' of diastolic LV inflow, and (3) returning diastolic vortices impactin...
