Abstract
Valvular heart disease is a condition with increasing prevalence. Although the current treatment of choice is still valve repair or replacement surgery, percutaneous treatment techniques are valid alternatives for selected patients. Various non-invasive imaging techniques are currently available which can provide the information needed to select appropriate patients, planning procedures and techniques.
This article reviews the usefulness of cardiac CT to assess patients who are candidates for percutaneous treatment of common valvular diseases. It also reviews the image acquisition protocol and its role in the pre-procedural study, as well as in the detection of the most common complications.
