AI could replace CT scans for detecting dangerous heart valve blockage

NCT ID NCT07620925

First seen Jun 09, 2026 · Last updated Jun 09, 2026

Summary

This study aims to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that can detect severe aortic stenosis—a serious narrowing of the heart's main valve—using standard ultrasound images. Currently, doctors sometimes need a CT scan to confirm the diagnosis, which costs more and exposes patients to radiation. The study will enroll 250 adults who are already scheduled for both an ultrasound and a CT scan, and will compare the AI's analysis of the ultrasound to the CT results. If successful, this could make diagnosis faster, cheaper, and safer.
