Abstract:
PURPOSE OF REVIEW:To establish the actual role of CT in the growing field of transcatheter valve interventions (THV). RECENT FINDINGS:The development of empirical CT measurements, which are linked with outcomes. CT is a reliable technique for assessing risk and planning transcatheter valve interventions for mitral and aortic valves. Pulmonic and tricuspid valve assessment with CT imaging is still in the early stages but there is room for development.
