320-row CT transcatheter aortic valve replacement planning with a single reduced contrast media bolus injection.

OBJECTIVE:To reduce the iodine load required for CT Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) planning on a 320-row scanner by acquiring the two CT TAVR steps (ECG-gated aortic root CTA and non-gated aorto-ilio-femoral CTA) within a single contrast media bolus injection. METHODS:50 consecutive p...

description OBJECTIVE:To reduce the iodine load required for CT Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) planning on a 320-row scanner by acquiring the two CT TAVR steps (ECG-gated aortic root CTA and non-gated aorto-ilio-femoral CTA) within a single contrast media bolus injection. METHODS:50 consecutive patients (82.6±6.9 years; 56% female) were prospectively enrolled and underwent a TAVR planning using a 320-row CT, with ECG-gated aortic root CTA immediately followed by a non-gated aorto-iliac acquisition, all within a single bolus of 40-70mL of Iohexol 350mgI/mL. The Iodine load, image quality, SNR, CNR and radiation dose were compared using a Mann-Whitney test to that of 24 consecutive patients (84.3±4.8 years, 58% female) previously imaged on a 64-row scanner with a conventional two-step protocol. RESULTS:Iodine load was reduced by 44%. All examinations were of diagnostic quality, with improvement of the aortic root CTA image quality (4.9±0.3 versus 4.6±0.5, p<0.01) and a non-significant decrease of the aorto-iliac CTA image quality (4.7±0.6 versus 4.9±0.3, p = 0.07). SNR and CNR were significantly improved in the aortic root CTA (14.0±5.3 and 10.4±4.5 versus 10.3±4.2 and 6.8±3.3, p<0.01 for both) and non-significantly higher in the aorto-iliac CTA (16.5±8.0 and 14.1±7.9 versus 14.7±5.5 and 12.5±5.0, p = 0.42 and p = 0.66). Total radiation dose was reduced by 32%. CONCLUSION:320-row CT scanner enables a 44% reduction of iodine load in TAVR planning, while maintaining excellent aorto-ilio-femoral arterial enhancement and lowering radiation dose.
