Phenotypic differences in computed tomography angiography valve tissue composition exist in patients with AS referred for transcatheter AV replacement, with women and low-gradient AS showing a proportionally more fibrotic phenotype. NH-White women have the highest fibrotic tissue composition, and no differences are evident among men.
