Improving cardiac computed tomography angiography image quality and diagnostic confidence for atrial fibrillation after left atrial appendage closure using a second-generation whole-heart motion correction algorithm

SSF2 significantly reduces the artifacts caused by LAA closure, and improves image quality, visualization, and diagnostic confidence in cardiac CTA of patients with LAA closure, compared with the SRM and SSF1. This could improve both the detection of device-related complications and patient management.

Abstract

SSF2 significantly reduces the artifacts caused by LAA closure, and improves image quality, visualization, and diagnostic confidence in cardiac CTA of patients with LAA closure, compared with the SRM and SSF1. This could improve both the detection of device-related complications and patient management.
