Abstract

Introduction: Coronary artery disease (CAD) evaluation via coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is well established, however the role of CCTA for evaluation of CAD in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for severe aortic stenosis (AS) is uncertain due to technical limitations in patient preparation (eg withholding beta-blockers, nitroglycerin and expected calcified plaque). This study evaluated the accuracy of CCTA for CAD in predominantly low-intermediate surgical risk patients (pts) undergoing evaluation for TAVR.
