APPLIED RADIOLOGICAL ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Mitral valve: This valve has two leaflets. They allow blood to flow from the lungs into the left atrium. And they prevent backward flow from the left ventricle to the left atrium.

Detailed explanation-2: -There are two such valves, one situated between each atrium and the ipsilateral (on the same side) ventricle. The right atrioventricular valve is also known as the tricuspid valve, and the left atrioventricular valve is also known as the mitral valve.

Detailed explanation-3: -The mitral valve is also known as the bicuspid valve. This is one of the heart’s four valves that help prevent blood from flowing backward as it moves through the heart.

Detailed explanation-4: -The mitral valve is also called the bicuspid valve and the left atrioventricular valve. As the name bicuspid valve may suggest, the mitral valve is considered to have two primary leaflets: the anterior and posterior leaflets.
