Key result
Quantitative angiocardiography in mitral valve disease showed mean end-diastolic volumes of 72 ml/m2 in stenosis vs 148 ml/m2 in regurgitation, correlating with regurgitation severity (r=0.928).
Observational (n=100)
Quantitative angiocardiography demonstrates that left ventricular stroke volume and cyclic left atrial volume change correlate closely with the severity of mitral regurgitation.

Angiographic LV volumes correlate with MR severity; leaves open incremental value over modern imaging for guiding therapy.
Kennedy et al. (1970) conducted an observational in Isolated mitral valve disease (n=100). Quantitative angiocardiography vs. Normal values was evaluated on Left ventricular volume and left ventricular mass. Quantitative angiocardiography in mitral valve disease showed mean end-diastolic volumes of 72 ml/m2 in stenosis vs 148 ml/m2 in regurgitation, correlating with regurgitation severity (r=0.928).
