Researchers have developed a deep learning model that can spot longitudinal changes in patients' brain imaging that could be indicative of cancer recurrence.
Michael Reardon, MD, detailed five-year data out of ACC.25 that found Medtronic's Evolut TAVR platform performs as well as SAVR—and even better in some ways.
Reviewing data from more than 6,000 patients, researchers found little evidence of the "obesity paradox" observed elsewhere. Underweight TAVR patients, however, may face some significant long-term risks.
The Millipede 088 was designed to treat large vessel occlusion stroke patients by “ingesting” the blood clot as opposed to dragging it through the patient’s blood vessels.
India-based Meril Life Sciences has been manufacturing its Myval transcatheter heart valves for years, but the technology has not yet gained FDA approval. This latest head-to-head comparison included data from more than 1,000 TAVR patients.
ACC.24, the American College of Cardiology's annual meeting in Atlanta, featured the latest in cardiovascular research and technologies. Representatives from Cardiovascular Business were there in person to take in the excitement.
A study out of China found most patients biopsied for prostate lesions did not have clinically significant cancer, calling the clinical ranking systems into question.
Gregg Stone, MD, explains the details of the late-breaking RELIEVE-HF trial at ACC.24, where an inter-atrial shunt improved symptoms in HFrEF, but not in HFpEF patients.
Howard C. Herrmann, MD, principal investigator of the SMART trial, discussed his team's research on self-expanding vs. balloon-expandable TAVR valves in patients with small annuli.
