Three dimensional volume quantification of aortic valve calcification using multislice computed tomography.
OBJECTIVE To assess a new multislice computed tomography (CT) technique for three dimensional quantification of aortic valve calcification volume (3D AVCV) and to study the relation between stenosis and calcification of the aortic valve. METHODS 50 patients with echocardiographic calcification of the aortic valve underwent two separate ECG triggered multislice CT for quantification of 3D AVCV...

متن کاملA new method for the quantification of aortic calcification by three-dimensional micro-computed tomography.
To gain a better understanding of the mechanisms that underpin aortic calcification, rodent models have been previously utilised. Regions of calcium and phosphate deposition are commonly visualised using labor-intensive two-dimensional histomorphometric techniques. In this study, we developed a novel micro-computed tomography (µCT) imaging protocol to quantify calcification in vascular tissues ...
متن کاملMultislice computed tomography for detection of patients with aortic valve stenosis and quantification of severity.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether multislice computed tomography (MSCT) provides a reliable, noninvasive imaging modality for identification of patients with degenerative aortic valve stenosis (AS) by quantifying the aortic valve area (AVA) in comparison to the accepted diagnostic standard transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). BACKGROUND Management of patients with ...
متن کامل[Quantification of aortic valve area using three-dimensional echocardiography].
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES To determine whether the reproducibility of left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) area measurement is greater with three-dimensional echocardiographic (3D-echo) planimetry than with conventional 2D-echo. To determine the LVOT circularity index by means of 3D-echo. To determine the usefulness of measuring the LVOT area by 3D-echo for quantifying the severity of valvul...
