The current recommendation for bioprosthetic valve replacement in severe aortic stenosis (AS) is either surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) or transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). We evaluated the performance of a machine learning-base...
PURPOSE: To investigate survival prediction in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) using deep learning (DL) methods applied directly to pre-interventional CT images and to compare performance with survival models based o...
BACKGROUND: Pre-procedural computed tomography (CT) imaging assessment of the aortic valvular complex (AVC) is essential for the success of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). However, pre-TAVR assessment is a time-intensive process, and t...

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...
BACKGROUND: Papillary fibroelastomas (PFEs) are a rare subtype of benign primary cardiac tumours, which are most commonly found on the aortic valve. Although median sternotomy is still used frequently there has been different attempts to remove the a...
