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.
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.

This study investigates the impact of deep learning-based contrast boosting (DL-CB) on image quality and measurement reliability in low-contrast media (low-CM) CT for pre-transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) assessment. This retrospective ...
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 ...

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...
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...
