Information about cardiac valves is available from ECG-gated cardiac CT. This chapter reviews the current role of cardiac CT in valve imaging and outlines potential clinical applications and future developments. Aortic valve stenosis can be accurately assessed by CT which is also suitable for patients with suspected infective endocarditis and suspected dysfunctioning prosthetic valves.
