CT scan acquisitionLVOT obstructionneo-LVOT prediction modelingtranscatheter mitral valve replacementLeft ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction is a life‐threatening complication of transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) therapies. Cardiac computed tomography (CT) analysis for TMVR planning is...
A patient presented to our institution for mitral valve replacement surgery involving cardiopulmonary bypass. Within 24 hours after the procedure was completed, the patient was noted to have a left hemiparesis on physical examination during the recovery period. A noncontrast CT scan of the...
CT has also become an important imaging modality in guiding structural heart procedures like transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and transcatheter mitral valve replacement. In pre-procedural planning for TAVI, CT has even become the standard of reference providing comprehensive information on ao...
CT for Structural Heart Assessments CTA is the gold standard for patient selection screening and pre-procedural planning for TAVR and is now playing that same key role in the growing area of transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) and more advanced structural heart assessments. The imaging is...
are considered high risk or inoperable for surgical aortic valve replacement33,34. However, patients receiving TAVI are more prone to be dependent on a pacemaker post implantation due to the prosthesis applying pressure to the stimulation conduction system of the heart35. Known influencing parameters ...

measure the size and shape of the valve region for proper selection of the replacement valve, and to assess the vessels that may be used for catheter access to the heart. This exam is timed with the heart cycle using an ECG and is done in a short breath-hold after IV contrast injection...

ORLANDO, FL — In an observational study of nearly 100 elderly patients with severe aortic stenosis who had CT scans to see whether they were suitable candidates for transcatheter aortic-valve replacement (TAVR), about one in five patients had possibly malignant lung, kidney, and other noncardiac...
Moreover, coronary CT angiography has an important role in pre-procedural imaging, spanning from transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) planning [8, 9] to newer applications in guiding interventional procedures [10]. Stress MRI has shown the overall highest accuracy in diagnosing ischemia, ...
