Answer
Hi,
The aortic valve transverse pressure difference is the pressure difference above and below the aortic valve. Doctors often use echocardiography to measure this index to help diagnose aortic valve stenosis. For a more detailed explanation, I need to see a cardiologist.
You can go to Vinmec Health System hospitals for more detailed advice.
Thank you for your question to Vinmec Health System. Best regards!
