About this trial
The EVIDENTIA Registry is a multicenter study designed to evaluate valvular heart disease (VHD) using cardiac CT. It aims to assess cardiac valve anatomy, function, and myocardial characteristics through detailed CT analysis.
1. Assessing the accuracy of cardiac CT in evaluating cardiac structure, volume, function, and myocardium in VHD patients. 2. Comparing the severity, classification, and etiology (primary vs. functional) of VHD. 3. Monitoring serial changes in VHD severity via echocardiography. 4. Investigating the relationship between echocardiographic and CT-derived parameters. 5. Examining the correlation between imaging findings, VHD interventions, and patient prognosis.
