Grading of Aortic Valve Stenosis at 64-Slice Spiral Computed Tomography: Comparison With Transthoracic Echocardiography And Calibration Against Cardiac Catheterization

PURPOSE:We sought to determine the accuracy of multislice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) for assessing of aortic valve stenosis and to establish threshold values of the planimetric aortic valve orifice area (AVA) that best separate between different grades of stenosis severity. MATERIALS AND METH...
