Stress Doppler echocardiography may be used in patients with mitral stenosis. Measuring the mean transvalvular mitral gradient and systolic pulmonary pressure at exercise may help to explain ...

Transthoracic echocardiography (TEE) is the primary approach to both diagnosis and pathophysiologic evaluation of mitral stenosis. (Otto CM, et al. Circulation. 2020;42b(e113).) The mitral leaflet ...

Both the ECG and the chest radiograph, however, are non-specific for mitral stenosis. Echocardiography is the primary means to both diagnose and evaluate the severity of MS. Since transmitral ...
