Abstract: PURPOSE To evaluate intra- and inter-observer variability of multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) sizing of the aortic annulus before transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and the effect of observer experience, aortic valve calcification and image quality.… read more here.

Abstract: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) can lead to paravalvular leak (PVL) in 15% to 20% of cases, which remains an important prognostic factor and an independent predictor of mortality in short and long-term follow-up. To… read more here.

Abstract: Aortic valve and root replacements require an in‐depth understanding of the aortic root and annulus. Both structures can be asymmetric at times, and this needs to be recognized and taken into consideration when performing valve‐sparing… read more here.
