Dear Colleagues
Artificial intelligence and digital health are rapidly evolving disciplines and will be transforming healthcare. Applications of AI in cardiovascular medicine are machine learning techniques for diagnostic procedures including imaging modalities and biomarkers and predictive analytics for personalised therapies and improved outcomes. Fields of application include genetics, cardiomyopathy, valve disease, GUCH, cardiac pathology and many moare.
We have brought together key opinion leaders and recognised experts in the field of AI to provide an insight on their experience, new applications and the impact of AI on future clinical decision making.
The target audience are cardiologists, oncologists, cardiac surgeons, internists, endocrinologists as well as imaging and device specialists from clinics and industry.
Due to the current Covid-19 situation, the conference will be held in a hybrid version with live broadcasting.
We would be happy to welcome you on May 26th-27th, 2021 either at the Cavendish Conference Centre in London or virtually and look forward to seeing you.
With best regards, Yours sincerely,
Alan Maisel, Alexander Lyon, Thomas F. Lüscher
