Calcium in the coronary arteries is a known cardiac risk factor. However, new data suggest it may actually tell us more about a person's overall health than researchers previously believed.

Trauma patients who present with poor blood flow and suspected abdominal hemorrhage are well served by emergency physicians using AI-augmented FAST imaging.
Surveying the landscape of interpretive AI in radiology, two researchers note a yawning gap between great expectations set in the recent past and actual clinical implementations as of spring 2023.
The DurAVR transcatheter heart valve, developed by Minnesota-based Anteris Technologies, was designed to move and perform like a healthy, pre-disease native aortic valve.
