Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most prevalent heart valve disease in western countries that poses a significant public health challenge due to the lack of a medical treatment to prevent valve calcification. Given the aging population demographic, the pr...
In this paper, we explored the use of deep learning for the prediction of aortic flow metrics obtained using 4-dimensional (4D) flow magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using wearable seismocardiography (SCG) devices. 4D flow MRI provides a comprehensiv...
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,...

BACKGROUND: Aortic stenosis (AS) is a common form of valvular heart disease, present in over 12% of the population age 75 years and above. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is the first line of imaging in the adjudication of AS severity but is tim...
Aortic stenosis (AS) affects about 1.5 million people in the United States and is associated with a 5-year survival rate of 20% if untreated. In these patients, aortic valve replacement is performed to restore adequate hemodynamics and alleviate symp...

BACKGROUND: Aortic stenosis (AS) is a degenerative valve condition that is underdiagnosed and undertreated. Detection of AS using limited two-dimensional echocardiography could enable screening and improve appropriate referral and treatment of this c...
BACKGROUND: Traditional statistics, based on prediction models with a limited number of prespecified variables, are probably not adequate to provide an appropriate classification of a condition that is as heterogeneous as aortic stenosis (AS).
Preclinical models of aortic stenosis can induce left ventricular pressure overload and coarsely control the severity of aortic constriction. However, they do not recapitulate the haemodynamics and flow patterns associated with the disease. Here we r...
PURPOSE: We aimed to develop a deep learning (DL)-based algorithm for automated quantification of aortic valve calcium (AVC) from non-enhanced electrocardiogram-gated cardiac CT scans and compare performance of DL-measured AVC volume and Agatston sco...
