Cardiac Imaging Consultant Cardiology Department, Hospital Clinico Universitario de A Coruña
Artificial intelligence has many potential applications in the field of cardiac imaging and echocardiography is not an exception. There are clear examples in different aspects like cardiac chamber quantification, assistance on the interpretation of stress echocardiography or the evaluation of valvular heart disease. We need to be prepared for automation in echocardiography as well as in other fields...
READ MOREThe new way to monitor health With the COVID-19 pandemic and the lockdowns and restrictions of physical contact, many cardiovascular scientific associations and journals started to speak about telemedicine solutions, but many highlighted that no telecardiology programme could be created overnight. In cardiology, the branch of telecardiology is well developed and the COVID-19 pandemic showed us...
READ MOREAs we move into 2021, and as the second wave of COVID-19 continues to rage, HealthManagement.org asked healthcare experts what they anticipate as the most significant change this year and what they would like to see in the future. Read on for a snapshot on whether healthcare in 2021 needs a reset and what could be improved. Prof Christian Lovis | Head Division of Medical Information Scien
READ MOREWhat’s behind the phenomenon? Top influencers from the healthcare field weigh in on what it has taken to establish credibility in their niche. Industry influencers have always existed in one shape or form but today their reach has been leveraged by social media networks. The modern-day influencer is a person who can impact opinions and bring ‘food-for-thought’ topics to the forefront through...
READ MOREPart of the new care delivery in cardiology is the use of artificial intelligence tools that are proving their utility in this evolving field. Electrocardiography has been considered an important diagnostic tool but also could have a role in the prediction of events. One important event to predict is atrial fibrillation due to its causal relationship with stroke, something that could be prevented...
READ MOREAt the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, with lockdowns and restrictions of physical contact, many editorials in scientific journals started to speak about the telemedicine solutions but no telemedicine programme can be created overnight. In cardiology, the branch of telecardiology is well developed and the COVID-19 pandemic showed us the potential of this tool and the need for improvement in...

READ MORESummary: Overview about the value of mHealth in cardiology exemplified by some promising tools that for sure will change the way cardiology is practiced, especially in the management of rhythm disturbances like atrial fibrillation. Where Are We Now? Nowadays, there is a lot of hype about the role of wearables and mobile health (mHealth) in the field of cardiology (McConnell 2018).
READ MOREA step forward for daily practice. Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools are proving their utility in the evolving field of cardiology. However, it's necessary that cardiologists understand their full potential in order to use them efficiently in the near future. Decision making in medicine Nowadays, the decision-making process in medicine is a complex task that in an ideal world is based on the...
