Imaging essentials for mitral valve interventions: pre, peri & post-procedure
18 Jan 2024 – From PCR London Valves 2023
Marta Sitges, Victoria Delgado and Edwin Ho discuss imaging essentials for mitral interventions. They start with an analysis of the most important pre-procedural imaging modalities, reflecting on the role of both TOE and TEE. As for the intra-procedural imaging, they focus on the key skills that...
Contemporary surgical & transcatheter treatment options for severe aortic regurgitation patients
05 Dec 2023 – From PCR London Valves 2023
Two cardiac surgeons, Hendrik Treede and Michael Reardon, and an echo specialist, Joao Cavalcante, have been invited to share their views on aortic regurgitation management.
So far, surgery remains the gold standard, and they explain why, by also comparing repair and replacement, before discussing the challenge that...
Who are eligible patients for transcatheter mitral valve replacement?
05 Dec 2023 – From PCR London Valves 2023
While surgical mitral valve replacement or repair and transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) are two well established techniques, Alison Duncan and Lenard Conradi explore the place that transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) now holds.
They describe how and why patients who, for clinical reasons, are not suitable candidates...
Patient selection for tricuspid intervention - the role of the right heart
30 Nov 2023 – From PCR London Valves 2023
Interviewed by Jörg Hausleiter, Rebecca Hahn and Philipp Lurz provide insight into the right heart's role in tricuspid procedures.
How can we best assess right heart function in patients so as to choose the most appropriate therapy for them? How TTE and TEE can help? How can...
Focus on the imaging learning center
22 Nov 2023 – From PCR London Valves 2023
Chiara De Biase and Nicolo Piazza explore the rationale behind the Imaging Learning Center, established in response to a real need for comprehensive learning in cardiovascular imaging throughout pre-, intra-, and post-procedural phases. Within this dedicated imaging space, various concepts are discussed, spanning from the aortic...
