OBJECTIVES: During emergency surgery, patients with acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) experience unfavourable outcomes throughout their hospital stay. The combination of total aortic arch replacement (TAR) and frozen elephant trunk (FET) implant...
A machine learning model was developed and validated to predict postoperative complications in patients with acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) who underwent total arch replacement combined with frozen elephant trunk (TAR + FET), with the goal of...

BACKGROUND: Decision making during aortic arch surgery regarding cannulation strategy and nadir temperature are important in reducing risk, and there is a need to determine the best individualized strategy in a data-driven fashion. Using machine lear...
Accurate planning of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is important to minimize complications, and it requires anatomic evaluation of the aortic root (AR), commonly performed through 3D computed tomography (CT) image analysis. Currently,...
