EFFECT OF THE LOCATION OF STRUT CHORDAE INSERTION ON COMPUTATIONAL MODELING AND BIOMECHANICAL EVALUATION OF MITRAL VALVE DYNAMICS

Effect of the Location of Strut Chordae Insertion on Computational Modeling and Biomechanical Evaluation of Mitral Valve Dynamics

The strut chordae (SC) have a unique structure and play an important role in reinforcing the tunnel-shaped configuration of the mitral valve (MV) at the inflow and outflow tracts.We investigated the effect of varying the SC insertion location on normal MV function and dynamics to UMBRELLAS better understand the complex MV structures.A virtual param
