Computed tomography imaging in the context of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) / transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR): An expert consensus document of the Society of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography.

Abstract

Since the publication of the firstexpertconsensus document on computed tomography imaging before transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI)/trans- catheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) by the So- ciety of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography (SCCT) in 2012 (1),there has beentremendous advancement in the field. Significant technological advancements and a wealth of trial data have led to deep integration of TAVI/TAVR and CT Imaging into clinical practice. The indications for TAVI/TAVR as the treatment strategy for patients with symptomatic se- vere aortic stenosis (AS) has expanded from those who are
