To be able to observe the blood flow in the artificial heart in real time in the MRI, the researchers an Linköping University had to build a full-scale model of the human circulatory system. Using ...

Cedars-Sinai investigators and colleagues have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that uses computed tomography (CT) scans to identify patients at risk of reduced blood flow to the heart.

Researchers have developed a method for cheaply producing heart valves in the span of minutes that are functional immediately after being implanted into sheep. The scientists call their method ...

Similar to testing a car, a team of researchers at UBC Okanagan has been test-driving a number of mechanical heart valves (MHV)—and the one designed in their own lab appears to outperform the others.

Men who currently use or have a history of using anabolic androgenic steroids exhibit impaired myocardial flow reserve, indicating coronary microvascular dysfunction. This impairment appears to ...

Cumberland Pharmaceuticals’ Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) drug has improved the amount of blood pumped by the heart, hitting the main goal of a phase 2 trial. The active thromboxane receptor ...

Using magnetic cameras, researchers at Linköping University have examined blood flow in an artificial heart in real time. The results make it possible to design the heart in a way to reduce the risk ...
