Heart disease is the leading cause of death in America and across the world. According to the CDC, more than 600,000 Americans will have a heart attack this year. As a result many of us -- or someone ...

Cardiac computed tomography (cardiac CT) includes coronary CT angiography (CTA) as well as using CT technology to assess disease of the cardiac valves, aorta and pericardium. This examination requires ...

A coronary angiogram is basically an X-ray photograph of the heart's arteries to look for blockages. It should NOT be done to diagnose coronary artery disease (CAD) in a stable patient, as this is ...

CorVista Health, a leader in noninvasive cardiovascular diagnostics, today announced new data evaluating a physiologic signal–based machine-learning model for detecting cardiac ischemia. The data was ...
