Methods for improved bileaflet aortic valve detection prior to transcatheter aortic valve replacement
Bileaflet aortic valves are commonly misdiagnosed. Assessment of the commissural angle and comparison of commissural heights may improve CTA-based diagnostic accuracy prior to TAVR. Improved detection may guide improved outcomes in this higher risk population.
