Research

Mayo Clinic researchers study diagnostic tests and treatment options for aortic valve disease. Read more about research in the Cardiovascular Research Center.

Areas of research have included:

  • Imaging techniques to diagnose and monitor valve disease, including echocardiography, multidetector computerized tomography (MDCT) and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cardiac MRI).
  • Minimally invasive procedures to treat aortic valve disease, including transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and other catheter procedures.
  • Outcomes of TAVR compared with those of open-heart surgery in people with different levels of surgical risk.
  • 3D printing of models of the heart and valves that surgeons may study to prepare to perform heart valve surgery.

Aortic valve disease

Research: It's all about patients

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Joseph Sirven, M.D., Professor of Neurology, Mayo Clinic: Mayo's mission is about the patient. The patient comes first. So the mission and research here is to advance how we can best help the patient, how to make sure the patient comes first in care. So in many ways, it's a cycle. It can start with as simple as an idea worked on in a laboratory, brought to the patient bedside, and if everything goes right — and let's say it's helpful or beneficial — then brought on as a standard approach. And I think that is one of the unique characteristics of Mayo's approach to research — that patient-centeredness — that really helps to put it in its own spotlight.
