Aortic stenosis is a narrowing of the aortic valve which prevents the aortic leaflets from opening and closing properly. Patients with aortic stenosis often have heart murmurs and experience debilitating symptoms including chest pain, dizziness, fatigue, shortness of breath and an irregular heartbeat.

About a fifth of all ischemic strokes are attributed to embolization of ruptured atherosclerotic plaque from carotid arterial stenosis. But it has been difficult to predict which person with asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis is likely to progress to symptomatic carotid disease and stroke.

Over the last two decades, the differentiation of severe from non-severe aortic valve stenosis with echocardiography has become more complex. The consideration of flow is now frequently essential to evaluate haemodynamic stenosis severity. Low flow can result in low gradient and, thereby, mask severe aortic stenosis.
