Note. Positive values: CFD-simulated values greater than the ECHO measured values; negative values: CFD-simulated values smaller than the ECHO measured values; CFD: computational flow dynamics; ECHO: echocardiography; LV: left ventricle; PFR: period of rapid filling; PSF: period of slow filing; PAS: period of atrial systole; PRF: period of rapid ejection; PSE: period of slow ejection; : length of the left ventricle; : diameter of the left ventricle; : width of the left ventricle; SI: spherical index; : area of the mitral valve; : perimeter of the mitral valve; : length of the mitral valve; : basal velocity in the left ventricle; : medial velocity in the left ventricle; : apical velocity in the left ventricle. RV: right ventricle; : length of the right ventricle; : diameter of the right ventricle; : width of the right ventricle; : area of the tricuspid valve; : perimeter of the tricuspid valve; : length of the tricuspid valve.
