FIGURE 3.

Three-dimensional instantaneous streamtraces at peak systole and mid-diastole for all three hinge configurations. At peak systole, the streamtraces entering the hinge first through the ventricular side of the hinge are shown in blue, those entering the hinge through the aortic side of the hinge in red. At mid-diastole, the streamtraces are colored to help the identification of the three main leakage jets
