Computed tomography (CT) plays a key role in the peri-procedural planning of left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) device placement and post-procedural evaluation. The geometric variability of the interatrial septum, left atrium, and the left atrial appendage morphology can be fully visualized and intuitively appreciated through CT-derived, patient-specific 3D model unique to each individual's anatomy. This review further defines the strengths and limitations of CT peri-procedural imaging in the planning of LAAO.
计算机断层扫描(CT)在左心耳封堵(LAAO)装置置入的围手术期规划和术后评估中起着关键作用。通过CT衍生的、针对每个个体解剖结构的患者特异性三维模型,可以充分可视化并直观地了解房间隔、左心房和左心耳形态的几何变异性。本综述进一步明确了CT围手术期成像在LAAO规划中的优势和局限性。
