An ultrasound system includes a processor circuit in communication with an array of acoustic elements and a display. The processor circuit receives B-mode and/or Doppler ultrasound data representative of mitral regurgitation associated with an orifice in a mitral valve. The processor circuit generates a model of the orifice and outputs a graphical representation of the model of the orifice to the display. The processor circuit generates a blood flow model of the mitral regurgitation based on the model of the orifice. The processor circuit compares the blood flow model to the Doppler data. The processor circuit changes the model of the orifice (e.g., a different shape, a different position, and/or a different orientation) such that the blood flow model is changed to match the Doppler data. The processor circuit outputs a graphical representation of the orifice with the different shape, the different position, and/or the different orientation to the display.
