Pdf Summary
This study guide is part of the Radiology Online SA-CME program, specifically for Test 3041A, which focuses on the use of CT imaging in transcatheter-delivered treatment of valvular heart disease, such as transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). It emphasizes that CT is the indispensable imaging strategy for TAVR planning. The guide includes several quiz questions regarding historical and technical aspects of TAVR and related procedures.<br /><br />The first TAVR procedure was performed in 2002, marking a significant advancement in cardiac treatment options. Aortic valve stenosis is particularly associated with younger patients having a bicuspid aortic valve.<br /><br />In terms of overcoming valve diseases, the guide refers to specific devices, such as the Cardioband, used for direct mitral annuloplasty as part of the mitral valve repair transcatheter devices repertoire.<br /><br />The document clarifies that the study guide itself does not provide SA-CME credit; participants must complete the corresponding test available on the RSNA website to earn credits. It serves as a preparatory resource for professionals seeking to deepen their understanding of imaging and transcatheter treatments for valvular heart disease.
