This 2-day virtual hands-on course seeks to provide comprehensive training in the use of CT in the pre-TAVI assessment and will cover how to perform the various measurements crucial for TAVI sizing.

  • Hands-on with your personal virtual workstation for 2 days
  • Report at least 25 TAVI cases yourself under expert guidance
  • Eligible for 14 CPD credits in accordance with the CPD scheme by the Royal College of Radiologists

The course will cover all aspects of the CT TAVI assessment, including:

  • Principles of CT and Data Acquisition/Protocols
  • Hands-on teaching on how to perform:
    • Annular Diameter, Perimeter and Area Measurements
    • Coronary Ostia Height measurements
    • Prediction of the optimal catheter interventional angles
    • Aortic Valve Calcification Score and the assessment of annular calcification
    • Annular measurements in bicuspid valves
    • Measurements for TAVI in Valve procedures
    • Vascular assessment of potential access routes

In addition, cases will be demonstrated highlighting important post procedure complications such as annular rupture, paravalvular leak and HALT/pannus formation.

You will have access to full TAVI studies for you to review using a generic method of analysis as well as using an advanced (CIRCLE CVI) software package
