Transcript of the video: Closure line of aortic valve on M-Mode echocardiogram, is seen as central line, while in bicuspid aortic valve, it is an eccentric closure, nearer to one of the walls of the aorta. This eccentricity of closure of the aortic valve leaflets, can be calculated using what is known as eccentricity index.

We thus compared AS progression after an acute MI and in patients with/without history of MI, and assessed post-MI pathobiological changes within the aortic valve leaflets in a sheep model.

Unlike the valves on the left side like the mitral and aortic, right sided valves can have some leak. That is, mild mitral regurgitation and mild aortic regurgitation are less common. Mostly, they are detected on highly sensitive tests like echocardiogram. In echocardiogram, the Doppler beam can detect this small leak.
