Examination of Valve Insufficiency Before and After MitraClip or TAVI Procedure by 3D Echocardiography Compared to MRI (3D_TTE_TAVI)

December 1, 2014 updated by: RWTH Aachen University

Quantitative Analysis of Catheter-based Interventional Therapies for Treating Valve Insufficiency by Using 3D Echocardiography.

Aim of the study is the definition of criteria for a standardized assessment of heart function by 3D echocardiographic procedures. Standardized criteria will be defined to assess aortic valve insufficiency after TAVI and success of mitral valve replacement respectively.
