Artificial Intelligence and Cardiovascular Diseases

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) has reshaped significant aspects of our lives, including its role in healthcare. AI is a machine-based system that can make predictions, recommendations, and decisions influencing real or virtual environments of a given set of human-defined objectives. It is designed to operate with varying levels of autonomy. Since cardiovascular medicine is rapidly progressing and new technologies are introduced to cardiovascular tools, AI has become valuable in cardiovascular medicine. This narrative review will discuss the general concept of AI and its role in diagnosing cardiovascular diseases, including ECG, echocardiography, cardiac CT, nuclear cardiology, cardiac MRI, cardiac catheterization, electrophysiology, heart failure, clinical decision support system, and face recognition.
