  • Research summary

    Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) is increasingly used to treat severe symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS). As part of the planning and workup for this procedure patients require a cardiac computed tomography (CCT) scan. The majority of hospitals also assess the coronary arteries by performing an invasive coronary angiogram (ICA). However, information about the coronary arteries can be derived from the CCT. The FUTURE AS study is designed to look at whether a CCT scan alone is safe and accurate for guiding the TAVR without having to expose the patient to additional ICA.
