The mitral valve (MV) regulates blood flow into the left ventricle (LV). In situations where the MV fails to fully close the resulting blood regurgitation into the left atrium causes pulmonary congestion, leading to heart failure and/or stroke. There is now agreement that adjunctive procedures are required to treat IMR, yet there is no consensus regarding the best procedure. There is thus an urgent need for quantitative assessments of MV function to better design surgical solutions. We demonstrate state-of-the-art means to produce patient-specific MV computational models to develop quantitatively optimized devices and procedures for MV repair that incorporate LV geometry.
