Figure 1 The images show the details of the anatomy of the mitral valve as revealed using multi-detector row computed tomography. The left hand panel shows the view as seen from the ventricular apex, while the right hand panel shows the view from the atrial aspect. Note the solitary zone of apposition between the aortic and mural leaflets of the valve. If using standard anatomical definitions, this solitary zone of apposition should be defined as the “commissure”. It is usually the ends of the zone of apposition, however, that are defined in this fashion. Note also that, when seen in attitudinally appropriate fashion, the ends of the zone of apposition are located infero-septally and supero-laterally. It is a mistake to describe these positions as being postero-medial and antero-lateral.
