Track: Cardiovascular Imaging and Multimodality Diagnostics

Cardiovascular Conference

Cardiac imaging has evolved from anatomical description into a comprehensive tool for physiological quantification, tissue characterisation, and predictive prognostication. The Cardiac Imaging & Advanced Diagnostics session focuses on AI-augmented echocardiography with automated strain analysis, photon-counting CT coronary angiography enabling ultra-high-resolution plaque characterisation and pericoronary fat attenuation indexing, cardiac MRI T1/T2 mapping and extracellular volume fraction for quantitative fibrosis assessment, 18F-NaF PET for active coronary microcalcification imaging, 4D flow CMR in aortic haemodynamics, and multimodality imaging protocols for TAVI, TEER, and LAA occlusion planning.


Key Discussion Areas:


  • AI-enhanced echocardiography: automated quantification and global longitudinal strain
  • Photon-counting CT coronary angiography and plaque characterisation
  • Cardiac MRI T1/T2 mapping and extracellular volume in cardiomyopathy
  • 18F-NaF and FDG-PET imaging for coronary inflammation and calcification
  • 4D flow CMR in aortic and valvular haemodynamics
  • Pericoronary adipose tissue attenuation as a cardiovascular risk biomarker
  • Multimodality imaging for structural intervention planning
  • Appropriate use criteria and cost-effectiveness of advanced cardiac imaging


Why Attend This Session?


Echocardiographers, cardiac radiologists, nuclear cardiologists, interventional cardiologists, and imaging scientists will gain cutting-edge updates on technology adoption, clinical validation studies, and practical guidance on integrating advanced multimodality imaging into cardiovascular care pathways.
