Role of Multimodality Imaging in Transcatheter Structural Interventions

Cardiac imaging is the backbone for safe and optimal transcatheter structural interventions. Transthoracic echocardiogram is the initial modality to assess valvular disorders, while transesophageal echocardiogram is best to delineate the mechanism of valvular regurgitation, preprocedural assessment...

description Cardiac imaging is the backbone for safe and optimal transcatheter structural interventions. Transthoracic echocardiogram is the initial modality to assess valvular disorders, while transesophageal echocardiogram is best to delineate the mechanism of valvular regurgitation, preprocedural assessment for transcatheter edge-to-edge repair, and for intraprocedural guidance. Cardiac computed tomography is the modality of choice for assessing calcifications, maneuvering multiplaner reconstruction of different cardiac structures, preprocedural planning for various transcatheter valve replacement, and assessing for hypoattenuated leaflet thickening and reduced leaflet motion. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging is best known for most accurate volumetric assessment of valvular regurgitation and chamber size quantification. Cardiac positron emission tomography is the only modality that could assess active infection through using fluorine 18 fluorodeoxyglucose radiotracer.
