TAVR procedures are used to replace faulty aortic valves with artificial valves using endovascular techniques on patients who cannot withstand invasive surgeries. Vital's CT TAVR planning application is used in the planning process to visualize and measure vascular anatomy for the evaluation, treatment and follow up of aortic vascular disorders.
"TAVR procedures are becoming more common and as a result, our customers are being asked to provide more information in the planning stages of these types of procedures," said Justin Noznesky, vice president of marketing and business development at Vital Images, Inc. "Vital is pleased to offer new tools like our CT TAVR planning application that can help our customers provide meaningful information to make clinical decisions."
Visit Vital's booth (#N5733) at ACC to see a hands-on demonstration of CT TAVR.
