This article interprets the core content of Chinese expert consensus on the CT examination for transcatheter aortic valve replacement and Chinese expert consensus on standardized evaluation of CT for transcatheter aortic valve replacement, and elaborates on the technical points of preoperative and postoperative CT examination for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), including patient preparation, data acquisition, image reconstruction, and contrast agent use strategies. The article also provides an in-depth interpretation of the crucial elements in standardized CT evaluation for TAVR, covering assessments of aortic root anatomy, cardiac morphology, coronary arteries, and surgical access routes. The article emphasizes the significance of the above consensuses in standardizing TAVR-related CT examinations, improving diagnosis and treatment quality, and promoting the development of cardiovascular intervention therapy in China.
