TCT-327 Calcium Volume Score on Contrast-Enhanced Computed Tomography Prior to Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement: what’s the most accurate threshold cutoff?

Background Previous publications have studied the predictive value of calcium volume score on computed tomographic angiographic (CTA) images for paravalvular leak (PVL), an important complication which leads to morbidity and mortality after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).
