Association of CT-Derived Extracardiac Features and Aortic Annulus Size in Patients Planned for TAVI.

Introduction: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is commonly used to treat patients with stenosed aortic valves. CT is one of the crucial steps in planning TAVI to obtain measurements of the aortic annulus to choose an appropriately sized prosthesis. Incorrect measurements can lead to patient-prosthesis mismatch and other complications.
