Researchers in Boston are set to co-lead a long-term study on the aging brain and factors that make individuals more vulnerable to neural injury and cognitive decline.
The team’s work will emphasize the role of specialized MRI techniques capable of detecting subtle changes around tumors with the help of pH-based imaging.
Using a virtual reality headset, the system, dubbed AR-VIU (augmented real-time volumetric imaging in ultrasound), creates a 3D rendering of anatomy based on 2D ultrasound images.
Early detection of cardiac amyloidosis is leads to the best outcomes, but it is often missed until later stages. AI is being developed to help detect these patients earlier using ECG and echo.
Researchers explored data from 23 different studies, identifying a “positive and almost linear association” between alcohol consumption and hypertension.
A new study suggests sildenafil, known by its brand name Viagra, can improve cerebrovascular function and minimize the risk of cognitive impairment caused by small vessel disease.
Paul Zei, MD, discusses late-breaking data from the REAL-AF Registry, which looked at the short- and long-term outcomes of radiofrequency ablation in paroxysmal and persistent atrial fibrillation.
Researchers developed an advanced AI model capable of extracting measurements from unprocessed CT images in seconds. It then uses those data to evaluate the patient's mortality risk if they underwent TAVR.
