New York Valves, CRF’s newest cardiology conference, makes heart team collaborations a priority

The Cardiovascular Research Foundation (CRF) has provided an updated look at its newest conference, New York Valves: The Structural Heart Summit.

New York Valves, scheduled for June 5-7, 2024, replaces the Transcatheter Valve Therapy (TVT) conference that CRF hosted for many years. It is expected to attract clinical cardiologists, interventional cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, imaging specialists and other key members of the heart team from all over the world.

One key difference between New York Valves and TVT is an increased focus on inclusivity and collaboration. Martin B. Leon, MD, CRF’s founder, highlighted this step forward in a preview of the new conference.

“This is an exciting evolution of what we’ve done in the past, taking us to a completely difference space in managing the lifelong journey of patients with valvular heart disease,” Leon, a veteran interventional cardiologist and professor of medicine at Columbia University Irving Medical Center, explained. “This meeting doesn’t just deal with transcatheter therapy, but introduces all of the imaging expertise that is needed. It’s a meeting for our surgical colleagues, who have a variety of new techniques and treatments we need to embrace. It brings in the clinical cardiologists that diagnose valvular heart disease and manages these patients and it really elevates the heart team as being the central focus for decision-making and patient care.”

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), structural heart disease, interventional cardiology and cardiac imaging are just some of the topics that will be explored during 12 late-breaking clinical trial presentations and six featured clinical science presentations.

In addition, researchers will present more than 100 abstracts with attendees.

Ron Blankstein, MD, professor of radiology, Harvard Medical School, explains the use of artificial intelligence to detect heart disease in non-cardiac CT exams.

Eleven medical societies have signed on to a consensus statement aimed at standardizing imaging for suspected cardiovascular infections.

Kate Hanneman, MD, explains why many vendors and hospitals want to lower radiology's impact on the environment. "Taking steps to reduce the carbon footprint in healthcare isn’t just an opportunity," she said. "It’s also a responsibility."
