Getting vascular surgeons more involved leads to key improvements for PAD patients
Vascular surgeons perform procedures interventional cardiologists and interventional radiologists do not do—so why not make sure they are part of every heart team conversation?
$Radiologist Michael Morris, MD, radiologist and director of cardiac CT and MRI at Banner Health, explains how cardiac radiology imaging is moving toward expanded use of fractional flow reserve CT (FFR-CT) and artificial intelligence analysis of coronary CT angiography (CCTA) exams as a standard of care. He spoke to Radiology Business during RSNA 2025.$
Radiology embraces FFR-CT and AI plaque analysis as cardiac imaging evolves
The specialty is moving toward expanded use of fractional flow reserve CT and AI analysis of coronary CT angiography exams as a standard of care.
9 ways cardiovascular IT systems can improve your day-to-day workflow
Bringing in a new and improved cardiovascular IT system can save physicians a ton of time and lead to considerable cost savings.
MGMA outlines path and pitfalls in CMS 2030 value-based care push
The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) has tested nearly 40 APMs, of which only two turned out to be successful, which does not bode well for meeting a 2030 deadline to transition to value-based payments.
AI turns wearable device data into actionable insights for heart failure patients
Afnan Tariq, MD, discusses early data on a passive, device-agnostic AI platform for heart failure monitoring. “When clinicians are empowered with insights and able to act earlier, you're able to have a durable impact," he said.

Melissa Chen, MD, Clinical Neuroradiologist, Associate Professor, University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, said challenges ton radiology include the limitations of the relative value units (RVUs) used to pay radiologists, the need for balancing workloads despite disincentives to reading some studies, and the need to find new workflow efficiencies with AI to offset the radiologist shortage. #RSNA

Melissa Chen, MD, MD Anderson Cancer Center, outlines some of the challenges practices are facing and possible solutions.

Jeremy Slivnick, MD, presents at the American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) 2023 meeting on how artificial intelligence (AI) can help make echocardiography better able to detect subtle signs of early cardiac amyloid disease when it is easier to treat with better outcomes. ssistant professor of medicine and an advanced cardiac imager at the University of Chicago.

AI models for cardiac amyloidosis could make a world of difference

Jeremy Slivnick, MD, spoke with Cardiovascular Business about AI's potential to transform how cardiac amyloidosis is diagnosed and treated.

Souptik Barua, PhD, assistant professor, Department of Medicine, Division of Precision Medicine, NYU Grossman School of Medicine, explains how artificial intelligence (AI) and wearable accelerometers can be used in cardiac rehabilitation to phenotype step-count trajectories in older adults.

Leveraging AI and wearables for enhanced cardiac rehabilitation monitoring

NYU Grossman School of Medicine researchers used artificial intelligence and wearable activity trackers to improve the monitoring and classification of older adult cardiac rehabilitation patients.

Amy Thompson, Signify Research, explains key observations in the teleradiology market at RSNA 2023, including the in creasing use of cloud and AI.

Cloud and AI are key to teleradiology success in post-COVID resurgence, expert says

Increasing use of cloud and AI are among the trends observed by Amy Thompson, research manager for healthcare IT at the healthcare market analysis firm Signify Research, at RSNA 2023.

Samin Sharma, MD, director of interventional cardiology and director of clinical cardiology, Mount Sinai Hospital, New York, discusses the first-in-human use of the Magenta Elevate percutaneous left ventricular assist device (pLVAD) with a small 10 French size and 5.5 liters per minute of hemodynamic support.

Initial results promising for world's smallest percutaneous heart pump

A new 10 French percutaneous heart pump could help greatly reduce vascular complications and improve cardiogenic shock outcomes.

Real-world implementation of AI in mammography

Samir Patel, MD, radiologist at Radiology Inc., and a board member of the Beacon Health System, explains how AI is being implemented in clinical practice for breast imaging.

Richard Heller, MD, RSNA Board member, associate chief medical officer for health policy and communications, and national director of pediatric radiology at Radiology Partners, explains some insurance companies are trying to take advantage of the No Surprises Billing Act by telling radiology practices they need to accept lower rates to remain part of the providers in-network.

Radiologists urged to report insurance companies forcing lower reimbursements due to No Surprises Act

Some payers are taking advantage of the NSA by forcing practices to accept lower rates to remain in-network, says Rad Partners' Richard Heller, MD.

Jamie Bourque, MD, medical director of the nuclear cardiology and stress laboratory, and medical director of the echocardiography lab, at the University of Virginia, discusses a new multimodality consensus statement for imaging cardiac amyloidosis. This area has rapidly expanded over the past couple years now that there are drugs to treat the condition.

New ASNC quality metrics will support standardization of imaging for cardiac amyloidosis

Interest in cardiac amyloidosis has been on the rise in recent years. Jamie Bourque, MD, talked to Cardiovascular Business about an upcoming consensus statement focused on using cardiac imaging to evaluate patients for signs of this serious condition.
