STRUCTURAL HEART / TAVR — CIRCLE CVI
Plan with confidence before the patient reaches the lab.
Help your structural heart team align around a consistent, case-specific plan — so physicians, imaging specialists, and procedural staff enter the lab with fewer unanswered questions.
✓ Used across cardiac CT, MR, and structural planning at 2,100+ hospitals in 90+ countries
THE HIDDEN COST
Fragmented planning costs the heart team time it doesn't have
Structural heart planning is more than collecting measurements — it's turning complex anatomy into a plan the whole team can review and act on. When planning is fragmented, that plan gets rebuilt every time someone asks a question.
Key measurements live scattered across images, screenshots, reports, and email threads.
Different readers may apply different approaches to the same case, without a shared reference.
Heart-team discussions run long because everyone is reviewing a different representation of the anatomy.
Complex cases require extra review, rework, or repeat communication before the procedure.
As volume grows, the program needs standardization — not just more individual expertise.
New or rotating staff face a steep learning curve when the workflow isn't codified.

BUILT FOR THE WHOLE HEART TEAM
What changes for each seat at the table
Structural heart physician
- A clearer picture of anatomy and procedural considerations going into case review.
- A shared visual reference for complex cases.
- More consistent preparation across operators.
Cardiac radiologist
- Less repetitive manual work during pre-procedural analysis.
- Standardized findings, organized and communicated the same way each time.
- Results that are more actionable for the procedural team.
Operational — department & program leadership
- A repeatable case-preparation process and less coordination burden across teams.
- Visibility into whether planning requirements are complete.
- Room to grow volume without relying entirely on added headcount.
IT / imaging informatics leader
- Weigh a new point solution against extending an imaging platform already in place.
- Interoperability, deployment, user management, security, and support in one evaluation.
- A workflow that fits the organization's current imaging environment.
EVIDENCE
What changed for programs that standardized
Challenge: Complex cases required multiple planning steps and extensive team review.
Change: The program implemented a standardized CT-based planning workflow.
Result: [verified, cited program result — placeholder pending confirmation]
Lesson: Standardization helped the program prepare cases more consistently.
Case study result shown as a placeholder — swap in a confirmed, citable figure before publishing.
Vascular CT planning (the Astute Imaging integration) is currently available in the United States and the Middle East only. Not every module is available in every region — confirm current availability before relying on this page for a specific market.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the readiness checklist cover?
CT acquisition and image quality, required anatomical measurements, access and approach considerations, device and sizing review, who needs to review the case, documentation requirements, and open questions to resolve before the procedure.
How does the September 23 webinar relate to this page?
The webinar walks through the same standardized planning workflow this page describes, case by case, with Dr. Kevin Steel and Dr. Jesus Mendiolaza. Registering doesn't require downloading the checklist first.
What does "standardized workflow" mean in practice?
One planning environment the whole heart team reviews together, instead of measurements and screenshots assembled by hand from separate tools.
Module and feature availability varies by region; confirm current regulatory and clinical availability before relying on this page for a specific market. Clinical decisions remain with the care team.
