Objective To compare the effect of preoperative CTA examination using group injection test and group injection tracking delay protocol on image quality in patients with transcatheter aortic valve implantation(TAVI)/transcatheter aortic valve replacement(TAVR).Methods A total of 43 patients who underwent TAVI/TAVR preoperative one-stop CTA examination in our hospital were randomly divided into two groups,and preoperative CTA examination was performed using group injection tracking and group injection test.After the scanning was completed,the aortic root sinus(C1),the proximal left and right coronary arteries(C2,C3),the ascending aorta(A1),the abdominal aorta(A2),the left and right femoral arteries(A3,A4),and the CT value and SD value of the paraspinal muscles of the same layer were measured;the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)of the corresponding parts were calculated.The obtained data results were compared and analyzed from both subjective and objective aspects.Results There was no significant difference in image quality between the two groups in the aortic root sinus(C1),the proximal left and right coronary arteries(C2,C3),or the ascending aorta(A1)(P＞0.05).At the renal artery level,there was a significant difference in image quality between the abdominal aorta(A2)and the left and right femoral artery levels(A3,A4)(P＜0.05).Conclusion In the preoperative one-stop CTA examination of TAVI/TAVR patients,the CTA images below the renal artery level can obtain better image quality than the group injection tracking method.
