Is MRI equivalent to CT in the guidance of TAVR? A pilot study.
Article in European radiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesTo compare a comprehensive cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) protocol with contrast-enhanced computed tomography angiography (CTA) for guidance in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) evaluation. METHODS AND
resultsNon-contrast three-dimensional (3D) 'whole heart' MRI imaging for aortic annulus sizing and measurements of coronary ostia heights, contrast-enhanced MRI angiography (MRA) for evaluation of transfemoral routes as well as aortoiliofemoral-CTA were performed in 16 patients referred for evaluation of TAVR. Aortic annulus measurements by MRI and CTA showed a very strong correlation (r=0.956, p<0.0001; effective annulus area for MRI 430±74 vs. 428±78 mm
conclusionsIn patients referred for TAVR, MRI measurements of aortic annulus and minimal aortoiliofemoral diameters showed good to excellent agreement. Decisions based on MRI measurements regrading prosthesis sizing and transfemoral access would not have modified TAVR-strategy as compared to a CTA-based choice. KEY POINTS: • 'Whole heart' MRI and CTA measurements of aortic annulus correlate very strongly. • MRI- and CTA-based prostheses sizing are in excellent agreement. • MRA and CTA equally guide TAVR access strategy.
