Other interventions: The ABC Bicuspid Sizing Algorithm
The ABC Bicuspid Sizing Algorithm is a valve sizing algorithm. It guides operators' evaluations of CT scans, helping inform (1) treatment allocation between TAVR and surgical aortic valve replacement, and (2) valve choice for patients undergoing TAVR. In select cases, the algorithm will suggest gated CT evaluation or artificial intelligence-based simulation models be used to further evaluate the risk of the planned valve size and deployment volume. The operators will consider the findings of the ABC Bicuspid Sizing Algorithm as well as other clinical factors when making their final treatment decisions.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* Have bicuspid aortic valve disease
* Have severe aortic stenosis or mixed aortic stenosis and regurgitation requiring treatment

* Have had a TAVR CT scan (retrospectively gated contrast enhanced acquisition) that is of diagnostic quality and includes multiphase reconstructions of the aortic root at the minimum available slice thickness (with at least three systolic and one diastolic phases)
* Would be treated with a Sapien 3 valve if found to be anatomically suitable for TAVR
* Have a suitable access route for TAVR with a Sapien 3 valve

Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
