In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The study involves annual 4D CTA imaging of the bicuspid aortic valve for a period of 5 years. CTA is often standard of care for BAV patients, but patients in this study will receive a higher radiation dose with a 4D imaging protocol. There may also be patients enrolled in the study who have a 4D CTA for research purposes when a routine CTA is not required for clinical care.
