Routine Screening of Coronary Artery Disease With Computed Tomographic Coronary Angiography in Place of Invasive Coronary Angiography in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

Abstract

CTCA performed as a routine noninvasive imaging tool in patients undergoing TAVR seems safe and effective allowing, with a single test, acquisition of information on aortic annulus anatomy, peripheral access sites, and evaluation of coronary anatomy.
