What is a CT ANGIOGRAPHY TAVI PROTOCAL?

CT Angiography TAVI Protocol is a specialized contrast-enhanced CT examination performed before transcatheter aortic valve implantation to assess the aortic valve, annulus, aortic root, coronary artery origins, and vascular access routes, providing detailed anatomical measurements for valve sizing, access assessment, and precise procedural planning.

FAQs

Can CT Angiography TAVI Protocol help determine the access route?

Yes. CT assessment of the vascular system helps the heart team determine whether a transfemoral approach or another access route may be appropriate based on the patient's vascular anatomy.

Can the examination help in selecting the TAVI valve size?

Yes. Detailed measurements of the aortic annulus and aortic root are an essential part of selecting the appropriate transcatheter heart-valve size and type.

Do I need any preparation before CT Angiography TAVI Protocol?

Preparation depends on the centre's protocol. You may be asked to fast for a specified period, and assessment of kidney function may be recommended before intravenous contrast, particularly when there are relevant risk factors.

What are the advantages of CT Angiography TAVI Protocol?

It provides comprehensive, high-resolution anatomical assessment of the aortic valve, annulus, aortic root, coronary artery origins, aorta, and potential vascular access routes. These measurements support valve sizing, access-route assessment, identification of relevant anatomical risks, and detailed TAVI procedural planning.
