We present a novel algorithm for objective extraction of the temporal evolution of the mitral valve vortex ring from magnetic resonance 4D flow data and validated the method against visual analysis. The algorithm successfully extracted mitral valve vortex rings during both early- and late-diastolic filling and agreed substantially with visual assessment. Early-diastolic mitral valve vortex ring properties differed between healthy subjects and patients with ischemic heart disease.", optnote="LAMP; 600.120", optnote="exported from refbase (http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/show.php?record=3300), last updated on Tue, 25 Jan 2022 16:40:25 +0100", opturl="https://graz.pure.elsevier.com/en/publications/objective-extraction-of-the-temporal-evolution-of-the-mitral-valv", file=":http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/files/KRS2019.pdf:PDF" }
