Summary

This study looked at 150 older adults (75+) getting a new heart valve (TAVI). It compared using a CT scan versus an invasive heart catheterization to check for blocked arteries before the procedure. The goal was to see if the CT scan alone is safe and effective enough to replace the more invasive test.
