Abstract: A study published in European Radiology proposes a scoring model based on cardiac CT imaging and clinical parameters to stratify patients with rheumatic mitral valve stenosis for surgical repair or mitral valve replacement. The study included 443 patients and identified several factors, including calcification quality score and papillary muscle symmetry, that predicted favorable early outcomes after surgery. The proposed scoring model may assist surgeons in preoperative evaluation and improve the complexity assessment of mitral valve repair. Cardiac CT was found to be more accurate than echocardiography in quantifying mitral valve calcifications. The study suggests that the availability of thin-slice spectral photon-counting CT reconstructions may further improve patient stratification in the future. [Extracted from the article]
