How to Approach the Most Critical Measurement in TMVR Planning
By Dr. Dee Dee Wang, M.D., FACC, FASE - Director, Center for Structural Heart Disease and Medical Director, 3D Printing at the Henry Ford Innovations Institute
Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) is a treatment that requires detailed pre-procedural planning. 3D models derived from CT scans offer the ability to assess patient anatomy and plan for a procedure in a more intuitive, accurate, and consistent way.
In this webinar Dr. Wang from the Henry Ford Institute shares how she approaches the most critical measurement in TMVR planning: the neo-LVOT.
She explains how using CT-derived models for 3D planning provides unprecedented insight into the neo-LVOT and clinical confidence for the interventional teams.
In this webinar, you will learn:
-
To identify the mechanisms of LVOT obstruction
-
The importance of 3D modeling to correctly identify the neo-LVOT with different implant types/designs
-
To estimate patients risk based on neo-LVOT measurements
