Can a simple CT scan replace an invasive heart test before valve replacement?
NCT ID NCT05750173
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 150 older adults (75+) getting a new heart valve. It compared using a CT scan versus an invasive angiogram to check for blocked arteries beforehand. The goal was to see if the CT scan alone is safe and works just as well, potentially simplifying the process.
