From: Quantification of mitral regurgitation in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy using aortic and pulmonary flow data: impacts of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and different left ventricular segmentation methods

Comparison of MRvol values in HCM patients based on the method of LV segmentation. The groups were subdivided according to the presence (red bars) or absence (blue bars) of LVOT obstruction (LVOTO). MRvol values calculated as the differences between LVSVexcl and Ao or MPA were lower in all comparisons. Comparison of MRvol between patients with and without LVOT obstruction is also demonstrated. Independent of the method used for MRvol quantification, patients with LVOT obstruction exhibited higher MRvol values than non-obstructive HCM patients
