Multimodality imaging plays a crucial role in patient selection, intra-procedure guidance, and follow-up for transcatheter aortic valve replacement in patients with severe aortic stenosis.
Multimodality imaging is essential for patient selection, procedural guidance, and follow-up in TAVR to improve outcomes and prevent complications.
Supports MMI in TAVR workflows; hypothesis-generating for standardized protocols.
The treatment of aortic stenosis (AS) has reached an exciting stage with the introduction of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). It is the treatment of choice in patients with severe AS who are considered very high risk for surgical valve replacement. Multimodality imaging (MMI) plays a crucial role in TAVR patient selection, intra-procedure guidance, and follow-up. With the ever-increasing scope for TAVR, a better understanding of MMI is essential to improve outcomes and prevent complications.

Ramineni et al. (2014) conducted a review in Severe aortic stenosis. Multimodality imaging (MMI) was evaluated. Multimodality imaging plays a crucial role in patient selection, intra-procedure guidance, and follow-up for transcatheter aortic valve replacement in patients with severe aortic stenosis.
