CT Scan TAVI Aortogram

A CT scan with aortogram for TAVI (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation) is a specialized, non-invasive imaging exam. It creates detailed 3D images of your heart, aorta, and leg arteries to help your cardiology team measure the native aortic valve, select the exact implant size, and map a safe catheter route.
