The Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM) and American College of Radiology (ACR) are hosting a new machine learning challenge as part of a collaboration with the Society of Thoracic Radiology (STR) and MD.ai.

A recent analysis of the COAPT trial, published this spring in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, suggests patients with symptomatic heart failure (HF) and secondary mitral regurgitation (MR) might see better mental and physical outcomes if they’re treated with edge-to-edge transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVR) in lieu of standard therapy.

Corindus Vascular Robotics’ CorPath GRX system—the world’s only FDA-approved and CE-marked robotic platform for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and peripheral vascular intervention—was used in the first-ever live transmission of a robotic PCI in Europe during this year's EuroPCR congress.

Cardiologist Andrea M. Russo, MD, took the reins of the Heart Rhythm Society as president this month after an induction ceremony at the organization’s annual meeting in San Francisco.

Three-year results of the BIO-RESORT study, presented at EuroPCR this week in Paris, put Biotronik’s ultrathin Orsiro stent ahead of two other competitors in terms of target lesion failure and revascularization.

An expert consensus document endorsed by four major cardiology societies redefines cardiogenic shock based on patient descriptions, physical markers and a standardized set of vocabulary.

The European Association of Percutaneous Cardiovascular Interventions (EAPCI) has published a clinical guidance statement regarding the use of intra-coronary imaging (IC), sharing the document during its EuroPCR Annual Meeting, May 21-24 in Paris.

Results from the TRILUMINATE study, presented this week at EuroPCR 2019 in Paris, suggest Abbott’s minimally invasive tricuspid valve repair system is an effective solution for patients with structural heart disease, reducing the severity of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in more than 85% of test cases.
