The management of multivalvular disease presents increasing challenges in clinical practice caused by complex hemodynamic interactions and limited guideline-based recommendations. As part of the inaugural collaboration between JACC and the Heart Valv...
BACKGROUND: Epicardial adipose tissue represents a metabolically active visceral fat depot that is in direct contact with the left ventricular myocardium. While it is associated with coronary artery disease, little is known regarding its role in aort...

Coronary artery disease (CAD) remains a major cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, with growing evidence linking immune dysregulation to its pathogenesis. Aortic stenosis often coexists with CAD (ASCAD), representing an advanced disease f...
OBJECTIVES: Since coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common comorbidity in patients with aortic valve stenosis, invasive coronary angiography (ICA) can be avoided if significant CAD can be screened with the non-invasive coronary CT angiography (cCTA)...
BACKGROUND: Currently, there is a paucity of literature addressing personalized risk stratification using multimodal data in patients with symptomatic aortic stenosis and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) following transcatheter ...
Aortic stenosis (AS) is a prevalent heart valve disease that requires accurate and timely diagnosis for effective treatment. Current methods for automated AS severity classification rely on black-box deep learning techniques, which suffer from a low ...

BACKGROUND: In aortic valve stenosis (AS), measurement of stroke volume index (SVi) by the 2D Doppler- technique is required to calculate the aortic valve area (AVA) and determine flow status but is prone to systematic errors.

OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study was to compare the computed tomography angiography scans of the segmentation results from the Cvpilot, 3mensio, and Volume Viewer systems to explore the practicability of the Cvpilot system in the automatic segmentat...
Quantifying aortic valve calcification is critical for assessing the severity of aortic stenosis, predicting cardiovascular risk, and guiding treatment decisions. This study evaluated the feasibility of a deep learning-based automatic quantification ...
