The key to AI cardiology analytics is human action
While AI analytics has greatly increased the ease of access to vast amounts of cardiology data, action is still required to make it useful.
Radiologists: Take the deep dive into advanced cardiovascular CT at SCCT
SCCT offers a unique blend of clinical education, business strategy, and networking to stay on top of CCTA's rapid proliferation.
Plaque imaging, AI and structural heart disease in the spotlight at SCCT 2026 meeting
Coronary plaque imaging is an area many experts believe is driving a shift toward earlier detection and prevention of heart disease.
How to evaluate risk when TAVR patients require surgery later in life
Robert Hawkins, MD, discussed an updated risk calculator—and the latest data on SAVR after TAVR—for a new video interview with Cardiovascular Business.
What every cardiologist should consider before signing a contract
Cathie Biga, MSN, a former ACC president, says salary is just one thing a cardiologist should ask about before signing any contract.

The Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI) is urging federal policymakers to ensure physicians play a central role in guiding the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into clinical care, while also raising questions about liability as the technology expands across healthcare.

AI is transforming patient care—and cardiologists have a critical role to play

While the Trump administration is pushing to accelerate clinical AI adoption, SCAI has emphasized that physicians must guide how the technology is implemented and governed.

Matthew Summers, MD, FACC, program director for structural heart, Sentara Heart Hospital, Norfolk, Virginia, explains how his center used a new transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) 3D CT planning software to better identify patients who are at high risk of complications. The software also enables the heart team to test the best placement of various valves to create a procedure plan tailored for each patients unique anatomy.

3D software helps cardiologists plan ahead for TAVR complications

Serious complications are rare after TAVR, but they can be catastrophic or fatal when they do occur. The care team at Sentara Heart Hospital found that bringing in new 3D software made it much easier to plan ahead for such issues.

Friederike Keating, MD, professor of medicine at the Larner College of Medicine, and director of nuclear cardiology at University of Vermont Health, said artificial intelligence (AI) in medical imaging may actually increase costs and make workflows less efficient in some instances. She said this is a key thing for health systems and policy makers to keep in mind if there is not clear data showing it helps.

How the rise of AI could lead to efficiency issues and lower reimbursement payments

AI has shown the potential to transform patient care. However, there are more details to consider than many health systems and policymakers realize.

Pei-Ni Jone explains ASE push for 3D TEE in congenital heart

ASE promoting 3D echo as a better way to treat congenital heart disease

The introduction of a 3D pediatric transesophegeal echo probe is having a major impact on how these pediatric congenital heart patients are being treated.

Friederike Keating, MD, director, nuclear cardiology, at University of Vermont Health, and chair of American Society of nuclear Cardiology (ASNC) Health Policy Committee, explains the support behind House Bill 7520 that aims to halt the Medicare's 2.5% efficiency adjustment cut to physician payments that was included in the 2025 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule.

Cardiologist says new legislation would delay flawed payment cuts, preserve access to care

The efficiency adjustment cuts introduced in the 2026 MPFS are based on assumptions many doctors believe to be false. The American Society of Nuclear Cardiology and other medical societies are pushing back.

Michael Honigberg, MD, MPP, a preventive cardiologist and cardiovascular researcher at Massachusetts General Hospital, explains how preeclampsia and gestational hypertension during pregnancy can elevate cardiovascular risks later in life and how to best manage these patients.

How hypertension during pregnancy impacts a woman's long-term cardiovascular health

Emerging research suggests that the early postpartum period may represent a critical window for influencing a woman's long-term cardiovascular health.

$iad Ali, MD, DPhil, director of the DeMatteis Cardiovascular Institute and director investigational interventional cardiology, St. Francis Hospital and Heart Center, explains how coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) offers a shift in cardiac care and interventional cardiology because of the information it offers on plaque burden and ischemia based on fractional flow reserve CT (FFR-CT). #TCT #YesCCT$

CCTA becoming an essential tool for interventional cardiologists

Ziad Ali, MD, explains how coronary computed tomography angiography is creating a major shift in cardiac care.
