Figure 3 (A) Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the flattest valve studied, in a long-axis perspective viewed from the aorta, with the fitted valve surface (yellow) superimposed on the traces of valve (green) and left ventricular (LV) outflow tract (pink). (B) Corresponding stereolithography model. (C) 3D reconstruction of a doming valve of intermediate shape, with fitted valve surface (yellow) superimposed on valve traces, and the LV outflow tract to the left. (D) Corresponding stereolithography model.
(E and F) 3D reconstruction of the valve with the longest dome (compare Fig. 2 bottom), with associated model.
