Cardiac CT in TAVI: Practical Insights

Cardiac CT in TAVI: Practical Insights – is a detailed, practice-oriented guide that explores the integral role of cardiac computed tomography (CT) in all phases of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI). As TAVI rapidly evolves into the gold-standard therapy for aortic stenosis in a growing patient population, precise anatomical and procedural imaging is vital to ensure successful outcomes, prevent complications, and support long-term surveillance.

This book provides a structured, step-by-step approach to using cardiac CT in the pre-procedural, peri-procedural, and post-procedural settings. Key topics include aortic valve and annulus assessment, vascular access planning, valve sizing, complication prediction, post-TAVI surveillance, and identification of valve-related or vascular complications. The inclusion of 85 real-world case studies further enhances its clinical utility, offering practical insights into decision-making based on imaging data.

Authored with multidisciplinary teams in mind, this resource is invaluable for interventional cardiologists, cardiac imaging specialists, radiologists, structural heart disease specialists, and trainees seeking to enhance their diagnostic and procedural precision. With its evidence-based guidance, this book supports the delivery of safer, more effective, and individualized care in structural heart disease.
