Abstract

AIMS: The analysis of endomyocardial biopsies (EMB) is a prerequisite for a definitive diagnosis in patients with unexplained heart failure (HF). The use of machine learning (ML) methods may help to identify high-risk patients and to initiate therapy. In this study, we develop ML models for risk stratification of parvovirus B19 (B19V) positive patients with HF based on key features from multiparametric EMB analyses.
