Condition: Aortic Valve Stenosis · Sponsor: Romy Hegeman
Rationale When determining the strategy for aortic valve replacement, echocardiography is still considered the golden standard (1). While pre-procedural MSCT is standard of care in TAVR patients, this is not yet part of routine clinical practice in SAVR patients. The researchers hypothesise that when atherosclerosis of the ascending aorta is identified preoperatively on contrast-enhanced multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT), the subclinical perioperative stroke rate (as detected on diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI)) can be reduced by modification of the operative strategy if necessary.
