Comparative reliability of internal and vendor-derived computed tomography angiography (CTA) measurements in pretranscatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) assessment

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to evaluate the reliability of internal versus vendor-derived computed tomography angiography (CTA) measurements in the preprocedural assessment for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Their findings indicated that while cardiac CTA metrics showed excellent agreement between internal and external measurements, iliofemoral metrics displayed moderate agreement, which was not clinically significant. This suggests that internally generated CTA measurements can be a reliable and efficient alternative for TAVR planning.
