Imaging aortic valve
Anchorperson:
S. H. Ewe
Summary
Explore cutting-edge imaging techniques to assess and guide the management of aortic valve disease in this comprehensive session. From preprocedural assessment with TEE to advanced CT and MRI strategies, learn how to evaluate and treat patients with low-flow low-gradient aortic stenosis, aortic regurgitation, and post-TAVI complications. Gain insights on multimodal imaging's role in guiding your approach to valve thrombosis and permanent pacemaker placement.
Learning Objectives
- To learn how to assess patients with low-flow low-gradient aortic stenosis in patients with reduced and preserved left ventricle function
- To learn how to manage and treat patients with increased aortic valve gradients post-TAVI
- To understand permanent pacemaker and valve thrombosis using multimodality imaging
- To learn how to assess patients with native aortic regurgitation and how to treat aortic regurgitation in patients who are high-risk for aortic valve surgery
