Prospective 4D Computed Tomography Angiography Of The Bicuspid Aortic Valve Apparatus: A Comparison Of Bicuspid Aortic Valves With And Without Aortic Insufficiency

Prospective 4D Computed Tomography Angiography Of The Bicuspid Aortic Valve Apparatus: A Comparison Of Bicuspid Aortic Valves With And Without Aortic Insufficiency

Brief description of study

The purpose of this study is to characterize the differences in the aortic valve and aortic root anatomy in patients with BAVs in order to better understand the anatomical features that allow the BAV to function normally. With this information, surgeons and cardiologists will be better able to determine which types of BAV can be repaired and which require replacement. It will also help them to determine better ways to repair the BAV to have more durable results. Additionally, it will help them understand more about the degeneration and failure of BAV over time.
