Heart CT study for TAVI planning
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study is a registry (a collection of information) for people who are about to have a TAVI heart valve procedure. It will see how a new type of CT scanner (the NAEOTOM Alpha) can help doctors plan the procedure better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled to have a TAVI procedure (a type of heart valve replacement).
- You are also scheduled for a CT angiogram (heart scan) and an invasive coronary angiogram (heart catheterization) as part of your planning.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You do not have severe kidney failure (eGFR less than 30) or require dialysis.
- You are not currently receiving active cancer treatment (like chemotherapy or radiation).

This study collects extra imaging data from 40 people who are already scheduled for a routine TAVI procedure to replace a narrowed aortic heart valve. The goal is to better understand the valve's structure and function using scans.
This study uses a CT scan plus a personalized computer model to plan a less invasive valve replacement (TAVR). It may help doctors better prepare for the procedure using simulation before your valve is placed.
This trial tests a new CT scanner (photon-counting CT) combined with a tiny camera inside the heart arteries to better see blockages. It's for people with chest pain or silent ischemia, but not for those having a big heart attack (STEMI) or with unstable conditions.
This trial builds and tests an AI system using information from a heart CT scan to help evaluate coronary artery disease (clogged heart arteries). If you need a CT coronary angiography for medical reasons, this may help improve how such scans are analyzed and used in care.
This trial is testing whether a special heart CT scan (coronary CT angiography) can help doctors better understand and treat calcium buildup in your heart arteries. If you have a type of heart disease that might need a stent or other procedure, this study could help decide the best approach.
This study uses a CT scan of your heart (CCTA) and advanced computer analysis to see how well it can predict heart risks compared to detailed inside-look tests (IVUS, OCT, NIRS). If you have chest pain and have had certain heart scans, this trial may help doctors understand your condition better.
