The three-day event is now in its second year. Each day will feature late-breaking clinical trials focused on a different heart valve.

By identifying these structural changes prior to the onset of symptomatic neurodegeneration, providers may be able to initiate preventive therapies sooner.

The new F-18 flurpiridaz radiotracer is expected to help drive cardiac PET growth, but it requires waiting between rest and stress scans. Software from MultiFunctional Imaging can help care teams combat that problem.

New MRI data demonstrate that patients who weathered severe cases of COVID-19 may sustain long-lasting heart damage. 

Patients treated with the Sapien 3 platform from Edwards Lifesciences and the Evolut platform from Medtronic were linked to more similarities than differences after six years.

Sola is a rupture-resistant balloon catheter that uses laser energy to deliver 360-degree pressure with each pulse. It was designed to address limitations the company saw in current calcium-modification devices.

However, eligibility alone does not mean a patient will benefit from treatment.

These actions represent "a significant threat to the integrity of radiology research," authors of a new analysis caution.
