This essay depicts recent advances of MDCT in the evaluation of aortic valvular disease.
Aortic valvular disease can be assessed with current MDCT technology. The improved imaging characteristics of MDCT have significantly decreased artifacts traditionally seen with prosthetic aortic valves and enabled excellent visualization of valve function. Advances in ECG-gated MDCT technology offer the opportunity to evaluate a variety of aortic valvular abnormalities.
本文描述了多层螺旋CT(MDCT)在评估主动脉瓣疾病方面的最新进展。
当前的MDCT技术可用于评估主动脉瓣疾病。MDCT成像特性的改善显著减少了传统上人工主动脉瓣出现的伪影,并能出色地显示瓣膜功能。心电图门控MDCT技术的进展为评估各种主动脉瓣异常提供了机会。
