摘要：

By TEE, normal leaflet thickness was ≤3 mm for the mitral valve and tricuspid valve and ≤2 mm for the aortic valve and pulmonary valve. Leaflet thickness measurements by TEE may better define the presence of normal or abnormal valve thickness in selected subjects in whom this issue is clinically important.
