Abstract:
The usefulness of cardiac CT to assess the aortic valve opening area (AVA) has been exhaustively documented. However, manual valve planimetry is cumbersome and time-consuming. We evaluated the accuracy and time-effectiveness of automated model-based AVA computation compared to manual planimetry.
