That however largely subtracts the surrounding anatomy and the membrane may be rather subtle in the mass effect of the rest of the flow. It is an interesting idea. Notice to this point that the acceleration we see on one of those cines is in the volume of the LVOT and LA which are separated only by the thin line of the anterior leaflet of the mitral valve.

We always approach the gargage from a different door than we do the bedroom and never walk throughout the house. It gives us a peculiar perspective and intimate knowledge of special details. This is more than adequate for replacing doors or repairing windows. If we need to shift walls or do other structural work, it is exceeding hard to image the effect on the neighboring room, or where the pipes run. Tearing other houses apart is not the same as a blueprint of a particular house. CMR is like a blue print of the house. Everyone talks about the doors (valves). I would like to change the discussion to the walls of which the doors are just a part. I think CMR will help us do that.

I am however willing to ask all the stupid questions in a way that is different from what we think that we know from our present perspectives. In the final analysis we only truly know what we can understand in our own words and images, not some elses. That is a quality of a master surgeon.
