INTRODUCTION: Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is increasingly prevalent among the aging population, and there is a notable lack of drug therapies. Consequently, identifying novel drug targets will be of utmost importance. Given that type 2 diabe...

BACKGROUND: Four-dimensional cardiovascular magnetic resonance flow imaging (4D flow CMR) plays an important role in assessing cardiovascular diseases. However, the manual or semi-automatic segmentation of aortic vessel boundaries in 4D flow data int...
BACKGROUND: Adverse outcomes from moderate aortic stenosis (AS) may be caused by progression to severe AS or by the effects of comorbidities. In the absence of randomized trial evidence favoring aortic valve replacement (AVR) in patients with moderat...

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to determine whether artificial intelligence (AI)-based automated assessment of left atrioventricular coupling index (LACI) can provide incremental value above other traditional risk factors for predicting mortality among...
BACKGROUND: Although transcatheter aortic valve replacement has emerged as an alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement, it requires extensive healthcare resources, and optimal length of hospital stay has become increasingly important. This st...

PURPOSE: In silico trials using computational modeling and simulations can complement clinical trials to improve the time-to-market of complex cardiovascular devices in humans. This study aims to investigate the significance of synthetic data in deve...
BACKGROUND: Current treatment paradigms assume aortic regurgitation (AR) patients to be a homogenous population, but varied courses of disease progression and outcomes are observed clinically.
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 ...
