Mechanical thrombectomy beats anticoagulation alone in STORM-PE
Highly anticipated trial data comparing mechanical thrombectomy to anticoagulation alone for intermediate- and high-risk pulmonary embolism showed that the more aggressive strategy improved outcomes.
ACC raises red flags over telehealth, payment reform and the cardiologist shortage
"We need telehealth the way we had it for COVID," Cathie Biga told Cardiovascular Business at TCT 2025. "We don't want to go back to having it so restricted."
Key takeaways for interventional cardiology from TCT 2025
B. Hadley Wilson, MD, talked to Cardiovascular Business about several standout late-breaking clinical trials presented at TCT 2025. Topics of those trials included drug-coated balloons, TAVR valve durability, pulmonary embolism treatments and much more.
The push to get 3D echo into the congenital operating room
Nee Khoo, MBChB, director of the echocardiography lab at Canada's Stollery Children’s Hospital, explains the rapid adoption of pediatric 3D transesophageal echo.
Nuclear cardiology expands beyond perfusion imaging as it enters a new era
Beyond amyloidosis, nuclear cardiology is also increasingly used to image inflammation and infection in the myocardium, especially in diseases such as cardiac sarcoidosis and myocarditis.

Charalambos Antoniades, MD, the British Heart Foundation Chair of Cardiovascular Medicine at the University of Oxford, is a co-founder of the company Caristo, which has developed technology to image coronary inflammation on coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) scans to visualize a key factor of residual cardiovascular risk.

Detecting coronary inflammation on CT imaging could reshape preventive cardiology

New technology now being considered by the FDA for approval can capture coronary inflammation on CCTA images and provide risk assessments. What could this mean for the future of cardiac care? We spoke to one researcher to learn more.

Aakriti Gupta, MD, Cedars-Sinai, explains use of cerebral embolic protection devices in TAVR

An updated look at the use of cerebral embolic protection devices during TAVR

Cardiologist Aakriti Gupta, MD, MSc, spoke to Cardiovascular Business about the latest data and trends associated with using cerebral embolic protection devices during TAVR to lower the risk of stroke.

Deepak L. Bhatt, MD, discusses research and drug therapies in development to treat lipoprotein (a). #Lp(a)

New drug therapies targeting Lp(a) could be a breakthrough in cardiovascular care

Lipoprotein (a) research is on the rise in recent years. Deepak Bhatt, MD, director of Mount Sinai Fuster Heart Hospital, explains why this trend is so important.

Video of James Min, MD, explaining the future of cardiac care using CT and AI plaque analysis to create a personalized and more accurate cardiac risk assessment, similar to a mammogram for the heart.

Embracing the future: James Min left academia to push for a paradigm shift in preventive cardiology

James Min, MD, Cleerly's founder and CEO, changed careers to address what he saw as a major unmet need in cardiology.

ACC Vice President Christopher Kramer, MD, FACC, offers an update on the creation of a new cardiovascular board.

Final decision on the creation of a new cardiovascular board expected soon

U.S. cardiology groups have worked together to propose the creation of a new American Board of Cardiovascular Medicine for certifying cardiologists. Now, after many months of waiting, a final decision is expected by the end of February.

ACC President Cathie Biga explains the American College of Cardiology advocacy efforts in Washington D.C. in 2025.

ACC president details key advocacy efforts in cardiology

American College of Cardiology President Cathie Biga, MSN, says Medicare payment reform remains a top priority going forward. Site-neutral payments and improved access to PAD screening are two other issues close to the ACC's heart.

Enterprise imaging expands in smaller and midsized hospitals

Smaller health systems are increasingly moving into this realm. Tim Kearns, director of marketing and healthcare IT, Konica Minolta Imaging USA, explains the implications.

D. Scott Lim, MD, medical director of the Advanced Cardiac Valve Center, and co-director of the Adult Congenital Heart Disease Center at University of Virginia (UVA) Health in Charlottesville, and an associate professor at the University British Columbia, explains how intracardiac echo (ICE) is increasingly being used to help guide structural heart procedures.

Key details on the use of ICE to guide structural heart procedures

Scott Lim, MD, details his experience using intracardiac echo to help guide structural heart procedures with or without traditional TEE. One key benefit of ICE, he explained, is its ability to overcome imaging challenges posed by prior cardiac surgeries.
