Figure 3: Scatter-plots of the agreement between parameters for the evaluation of paravalvular leak severity. Panel A: Scatterplot of echocardiographic (TTE) parameters; jet width, circumferential extent, and regurgitant fraction. Note severity by regurgitant fraction is depicted in different colors and shapes. Panel B-D: Scatterplots depicting agreement between PVL severity classification by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) and the following echocardiographic parameters: regurgitant fraction (B), jet width (C) and circumferential extent (D). |
