Sanjiv Narayan, MD, MBChB, MSc, FRCP, an American Heart Association volunteer, director of the electrophysiology research and atrial fibrillation program, and co-founder of the Stanford Arrhythmia Center at Stanford Medicine, sees AI at a major inflection point in cardiology, enabling cardiologists to become more efficient, gain more detailed insights into their patients' risk factors, better answers to clinical questions and help in navigating procedures. But, he said AI will not replace cardiologists.

Will AI replace cardiologists?

AI-based tools are here to stay, but one expert does not see them replacing cardiologists anytime soon. Look at recent trends in radiology, he says, to get a better idea of what cardiology's future may look like.

Damodhar Suresh, MD, executive medical director of St. Elizabeth Healthcare Heart and Vascular Institute in Edgewood, Kentucky. He is also a volunteer current science chair for the International committee for the American Heart Association (AHA), explains how the AHA is helping cardiologists from numerous countries put in place systems of care to standardize how heart attack patients are treated.

American Heart Association helping countries all over the world improve care

The AHA has developed systems of care that can help developing countries improve their treatment strategies for both heart attack and stroke.

Sanjiv Narayan, MBChB, MD, MSc, FRCP, an American Heart Association volunteer, Director of the Electrophysiology Research and Atrial Fibrillation Program, and Co-Founder of the Stanford Arrhythmia Center, at Stanford Medicine, spoke in sessions at the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) 2026 Congress about the use of artificial intelligence in AFib care, using smarter detection to enable better outcomes.

AI gaining ground in electrophysiology, but clinicians still run the show

Even as AI is used more and more in the field, cardiologists and other clinicians are at the heart of patient care. 

Kanwal Farooqi, MD, pediatric cardiology imaging specialist, and associate professor of pediatrics at Columbia University Irving Medical Center, innovations for clinical 3D printing and virtual reality in cardiac CT imaging aimed at structural and congenital heart patients.

3D models can improve the visualization of challenging cardiac anatomy in addition to supporting clinical decision-making, education and procedural planning.

Damodhar Suresh, MD, a cardiologist and the executive medical director of St. Elizabeth Healthcare Heart and Vascular Institute in Edgewood, Kentucky, and current science chair for the International committee for the American Heart Association (AHA), explains some of the top trials and key takeaways at the 2026 European Society of Cardiology (ESC) meeting. #ESC2026

5 practice-changing trials from ESC Congress 2026

Damodhar Suresh, MD, spoke to Cardiovascular Business about some of the biggest studies presented during the annual ESC conference in Munich, Germany. 

Anand Singh, MD, FACR, chair of the Radiology Partners National Quality and Safety Committee, associate director of Mosaic Clinical Technologies, said hospitals should begin by identifying the specific problems they want AI to solve rather than starting with the technology itself.

Hospitals need a management strategy for radiology AI before investing

Radiology departments need to think about long-term management of AI, not just which algorithms may help them currently.

Key things to consider when building the team for your cardiac CT program

Getting nurses and technologists more involved is a smart way to ensure new cardiac CT programs deliver the safest, most effective patient care possible.

Anekwe Onwuanyi, MD, FACC, American Heart Association volunteer, Professor of Medicine and Chief of Cardiology, at Morehouse School of Medicine, medical director, heart failure program, Grady Memorial Hospital, moderated a joint session at the European Society of Cardiology with European and Egyptian cardiologists on how to close outcome gaps in cardiovascular care in ethnically diverse populations.

How to close outcome gaps in cardiovascular care

It's important to remember that there is no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to patient care. What works is some communities may not work in others.
