Mean mitral regurgitant volume (RV), regurgitant fraction (RF) and corrected RF, as derived from the four different methods

	SC at AoV	SSC at AoV	SC at STJ	SC at AAo	p
# Patients	98	98	82	97
Mitral RV [mean (SD)], ml	10.8 (10.1)	4.8 (8.4)	16.1 (10.3)	17.9 (11.6)	< 0.001
Mitral RF [mean (SD)], %	8.9 (8.5)	3.9 (7.6)	13.5 (7.4)	15.3 (9.7)	< 0.001
Corrected mitral RF [mean (SD)]	10.8 (10.0)	4.7 (8.7)	15.9 (9.2)	17.4 (11.0)	< 0.001

Mitral RV was calculated using the formula LV SV − aortic forward flow. Mitral RF was calculated using the formula $\frac{\text{LV ,SV}-\text{aortic, forward, flow}}{\text{LV ,SV}}\times 100\%$. Corrected mitral RF was calculated using the formula $\frac{\text{LV, SV}-\text{aortic, forward, flow}}{\text{LV ,SV}-\text{aortic, regurgitant, volume}}\times 100\text{\%}$. All follow up pairwise comparisons had adjusted p-values < 0.05, except corrected mitral RF derived from SC at STJ vs SC at AAo
