Bland-Altman analysis and linear regression analysis between intra-operative mitral valve area measurement by 3-dimensional planimetry technique and pressure half-time technique. (A) Analysis using recorded transoeosophageal echocardiographic data, Top: Bland-Altman plot, bias and precision = 0.40 ± 0.43 cm2, Bottom: linear regression analysis, r = 0.81 (y = − 0.04 + 0.88 · x, p < 0.001), (B) Analysis by observer A using intra-operative transoeosophageal echocardiographic data, Top: Bland-Altman plot, bias and precision = 0.46 ± 0.57 cm2, Bottom: linear regression analysis, r = 0.62 (y = 0.56 + 0.66 · x, p <0.001), (C) Analysis by observer B using intra-operative transoeosophageal echocardiographic data, Top: Bland-Altman plot, bias and precision = 0.35 ± 0.68 cm2, Bottom: linear regression analysis, r = 0.74 (y = 0.17 + 0.83 · x, p <0.001).
