Planimetry of Aortic Valve Area Using CTA: Cutoff Derivation for Stenotic Bicuspid and Tricuspid Valves
Direct planimetry of AVA is feasible and shows utility in low gradient-aortic stenosis. However, as the hemodynamic effect is impacted by valve shape, cutoff values should differentiate between tricuspid and bicuspid valves.
