Mitral annular position encoding. The image on the left shows the lateral mitral annular point overlaid on the CMR image. The image on the right was created by measuring the distance to the mitral annular point from each pixel position and weighting with a Gaussian function; the position of the point is overload for illustration. The bottom image shows the CMR image and distance map overlaid. For clarity, only one of the two points is shown here. MV mitral valve
