Dallas) agreed that this study "serves as a reminder that current TAVR candidates often have multiple comorbidities, including some that were clinically occult up to the time of the CT scan." The relatively high incidence of malignancy "is not surprising," given the advanced age of these patien...
Both UHR-CTA and HPS-CTA acquisitions using photon-counting CT technology provided reliable aortic annular assessments for TAVR planning. While UHR-CTA offers superior image quality, HPS-CTA is associated with lower radiation exposure. However, severely impaired image quality on HPS-CTA may impact ...
CT is already the standard for preprocedural planning at most hospitals performing structural heart interventions, such as TAVR, said Wang. “Now it's just adapting that same CT scan and really just using the measurements for left atrial appendage, which in this paper we give different scenarios...
A suitable MDCT scan protocol is shown in Table 1. Table 1. Image acquisition protocol used at our Institution for MDCT-based planning of transcatheter mitral valve interventions (scanner type: Discovery CT750 HD, General Electric, Milwaukee, WI). ParameterValue Tube voltage 100-120kV*° Tube ...
Optimal pre-TAVR annulus sizing in patients with bicuspid aortic valve: area-derived perimeter by CT is the best-correlated measure with intraoperative sizingEuropean Radiology - To clarify the optimal measurements for patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) preferred for transcatheter aortic valve ...
