CT Acquisition and Reconstruction Techniques for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Procedure Planning Utilizing Siemens Healthineers Hardware

Introduction

This document provides recommendations for reliable CT image acquisition for transcatheter aortic valve procedures.

Work-Flow Rationale

The key component ofall approaches is an ECG-assisted data acquisition that covers at least the aortic root.

The sequence of patient preparation and the relevant principles of CT data acquisition are explained in brief.

CT Scan

Two different approaches are used to combine the ECG-assisted data acquisition of the aortic root structures and the non-ECG-assisted computed tomography angiography (CTA) of the aorto-ilio-femoral vasculature for evaluation of the transfemoral access route.

The rest of the manual provides detailed information on CT data acquisition and reconstruction techniques for Siemens Healthineers hardware, including Somatom Definition Flash Drive and Somatom Force, Somatom Definition AS64, AS+, Edge, Edge+, and Somatom go. Top and XCite systems.
