Researchers used AI-enabled software developed by Cleerly to evaluate the CCTA results of more than 6,000 patients. The software was consistently effective, identifying patients who may face an increased risk of poor outcomes.
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.
Researchers warned that “aggressive procedural modifications” should not be necessary during TAVR to mitigate the risk of prosthesis-patient mismatch. This appears to be true for patients receiving both self-expanding and balloon-expandable TAVR valves.
"The singular message to the public is that the optimal treatment for multivessel coronary artery disease—to improve not only long-term survival but also lower your risk of complications—is coronary artery bypass surgery," one specialist said in a statement.

By combining MSI results with whole-brain MRI exams, researchers are hoping to gain insight into the development of Alzheimer’s disease on a molecular level.
Reducing total calorie intake and minimizing large meals, on the other hand, were both linked to improved weight loss. The study followed participants for an average of 6.3 years.
Accelerated MRI with AI image reconstruction nearly halved orthopedic scan times while maintaining or even improving image quality in a newly published prospective study.
