: LA/MR/AR...same as mitral regurgitation (MR). there's also the AR which stands for aortic regurgitation. "insufficiency" is rarely or not at all used in English!//Meaning ??:)

SA/MI/AI
AS = atrio sinistro
IM = infarto miocardico
IAo= insufficienza aortica
LA = left atrium
MI = myocardial infarction
AI = aortic insufficiency

mea culpa...usually IM stands for myocardial infarction
....given the context, I would say too "mitral insufficiency" in this case

mitral insufficiency (MI) exists as diagnosis, see:
http://www.wrongdiagnosis.com/medical/mitral_insufficiency_m...
However, MR is a valid option too, of course
mitral insufficiency
n. Abbr. MI
Incompetence of the mitral valve of the heart resulting in backflow of blood from the left ventricle to the left atrium. Also called mitral regurgitation.

Emma Drew
: okay for left atrium and aortic insufficiency, but I would have thought that IM in that context would be more likely to be mitral insufficiency

Lirka
: ciao mihaela; sorry, but cannot agree on this one. MI is mitral regurgitation. they're describing both the mitral and the aortic valve...//I see. :)
