Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is a proof of concept looking at the safety of treating subjects with moderate aortic stenosis using a Non-Invasive Ultrasound Therapy.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Valvosoft, Ultrasound guided Non-Invasive Ultrasound Therapy (NIUT) medical device, delivers focused and controlled, short ultrasound pulses (\<20μsec), directed trans-thoracically at a high acoustic intensity (measured in watts per square centimeter (W/cm2), to produce non-thermal mechanical tissue softening of the targeted calcified aortic valve.

Echocardiographic live imaging enables to follow valve movements in real-time and thus target the therapeutic ultrasound on the calcified valve with great precision. This is first in human or proof of concept study.
