  • Shockwave Medical, a Johnson & Johnson MedTech company, has officially launched its Shockwave E8 Peripheral IVL Catheter in the United States. Shockwave’s E8 catheter was designed specifically to treat patients with calcified femoropopliteal and below-the-knee (BTK) peripheral artery disease (PAD), including those diagnosed with complex chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI).

    Peripheral IVL linked to key benefits over atherectomy as utilization increases

    Atherectomy is still the go-to treatment option for many clinicians, but peripheral IVL appears to be gaining momentum as time goes on. 

  • Cara Santillo explains how new CPT codes are expanding reimbursement CCTA AI. #Heartflow #SCCT #YesCCT

    New CPT codes are expanding reimbursement for AI-powered CCTA tools

    New codes for these technologies have made a world of difference for clinicians. Reimbursement for the use of AI is an area where cardiology is far ahead of most other healthcare specialties.

  • Michael Coords, MD, FSCCT, medical director of cardiovascular imaging at RadNet, explains what the new Maryland law requires when when breast artery calcifications are found in mammograms that indicate the patient may have higher risk of cardiovascular disease.

    Maryland mammography law turns incidental cardiac findings into a new screening opportunity

    The law reflects growing interest in using existing imaging studies to identify cardiovascular disease risk without requiring additional scans, radiation exposure or costs. 

  • HeartMate 3 LVAD abbott

    HeartMate 3 LVAD linked to 16% risk of stroke, other neurological issues—what heart failure specialists should know

    Researchers tracked years of data, noting that strokes and other neurological adverse events reduce a patient's odds of survival.  

  • Video: Rick Snyder, MD, FACC, president of HeartPlace, and Chief Physician Executive at U.S. Heart and Vascular, testified to Congressional leaders in his role with the American Independent Medical Practice Association (AIMPA) to explain how federal healthcare policies have created an inefficient payment system that rewards higher cost care models and is putting lower cost private practices out of business.

    Policy expert explains why cardiology services in the US are getting more expensive

    "We really should have a system that is patient-centric, physician-led, and professionally managed, but in a cost-effective way," Rick Snyder, MD, said.

Catheter-directed thrombolysis significantly improves PE outcomes

New late-breaking data presented at ESC Congress 2026 adds to the growing evidence that more invasive catheter-based pulmonary embolism procedures can improve patient outcomes.

An FDA panel will discuss its recommendations related to Abbott's TriClip G4 transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) system for tricuspid regurgitation.

Tricuspid valve repair linked to major benefits for high-risk heart patients

While T-TEER is already known to improve a patient's quality of life, this late-breaking study from ESC Congress 2026 confirmed it also improves survival and reduces the risk of heart failure hospitalization.

AI tech uses cardiac CT scans to evaluate inflammation, predict stroke risk

AI technology developed by Caristo Diagnostics was the focus of multiple studies presented at ESC Congress 2026.

Compensation for U.S. cardiologists is up across the board, according to a recent survey published by MedAxiom, an American College of Cardiology company. The report identified similar trends for cardiovascular surgeons, highlighting the country’s high demand for all heart specialists in 2024 and beyond.

Catheter ablation for AFib fails to improve quality of life more than a sham procedure

It was a relatively small study, and patients were only followed for six months, but these late-breaking data out of ESC Congress 2026 give care teams a lot to consider. 

CRT-D

Targeted lead placement fails to improve outcomes for heart failure patients undergoing CRT

“Our findings do not support routine electrical mapping to target left ventricular lead placement in contemporary CRT practice,” one researcher said. 

Newsweek ranked the 50 best heart hospitals in the world

TAVR and PCI: When heart patients need both, does the order matter?

Many patients who need TAVR also present with coronary artery disease. According to new data presented at ESC Congress 2026, performing TAVR first is noninferior to performing PCI first. 

Aficamten shows potential to be first FDA-approved treatment for nonobstructive HCM

New data presented at ESC Congress 2026 represent a huge breakthrough for patients with nonobstructive HCM. "For the first time, we have shown clinically meaningful improvements in symptoms and exercise capacity with a treatment that targets the cause of the disease," one researcher explained. 

Heartflow tech limits unnecessary catheterizations in patients with suspected CAD

AI-powered software from Heartflow can provide cath labs with a lot of value, according to new late-breaking data presented at ESC Congress 2026.
