Geometric characteristics of bicuspid aortic valvesCentral MessagePerspective

Objective: We studied the coaptation angles α and β in bicuspid aortic valve geometry from computed tomography scan images. Methods: In 45 patients, we calculated the coaptation angle α (the angle between the nonfused commissures crossing the center of coaptation), angle β (between the nonfused comm...
