Visual and quantitative evaluation of the mitral valve is an important step in the clinicalworkflow according to experts as knowledge about mitral dynamics is crucial for interventionalplanning. We consider dynamic modeling of mitral valve annulus and leaflet coaptation by cubicB-splines, and the error of every tagging point is measured to the fitted curve to decide whether asecond round fitting is needed. After modeling, four clinically important points are identified. Thismodeling and identification are significantly important for further diagnosis and evaluation of thedynamic deformation of the mitral valve apparatus.
