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 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.
This study uses a special heart CT scan (coronary CT angiography) to look at plaque and how blood flows in people with coronary artery disease. It may help match your scan results with heart measurements and guide future care decisions.
