Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is having a significant impact in medical imaging, advancing almost every aspect of the field, from image acquisition and postprocessing to automated image analysis with outreach toward supporting decision making. Noninvasive cardiac imaging is one of the main and most exciting fields for AI development. The aim of this review is to describe the main applications of AI in cardiac imaging, including CT and MR imaging, and provide an overview of recent advancements and available clinical applications that can improve clinical workflow, disease detection, and prognostication in cardiac disease.
