Abstract

Introduction: ECG-gated vs high-pitch non-ECG-gated CT angiography (CTA) for trans-catheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) planning has been controversially discussed, with current recommendations of ECG-gated CTA. However, the impact on clinical outcome, including post-interventional paravalvular leakage (PVL), remains unclear. Thus, the purpose of this study was to compare a retrospectively ECG-gated CTA against a high-pitch non-ECG-gated CTA protocol for TAVR planning and their associated impact on clinical outcome.
