Pilot data support further aortic leaflet flow research; hypothesis-generating and requires validation before any clinical consideration.
Vector flow mapping method using intraoperative epi-aortic echocardiogram is an effective way of measuring WSS and OSI on normal aortic leaflet in vivo, allowing for better understanding of the pathophysiology of aortic valve diseases.
