Departments and specialties

Research

Mayo Clinic doctors have been pioneers in many types of heart valve surgery, such as mitral valve repair and aortic valve repair, for many years. Mayo Clinic researchers continue to study new diagnostic tests and surgical options for people with mitral valve disease. You may have the opportunity to participate in clinical trials.

Mayo Clinic doctors and other health care professionals also study and use advanced technology, such as using 3D-printed models of the heart and valves to prepare for mitral valve surgery. Read more about research in the Cardiovascular Research Center.
