AI-powered cardiac MRI: Clínica Dávila adds a new scanner and INCIC stresses the value of expert interpretation

Better image quality and faster examinations. That is the promise of the MRI scanner with artificial intelligence recently added by Clínica Dávila as part of its move towards more precise cardiology.

Cardiac magnetic resonance provides detailed images of the structure and function of the heart, and is one of the most complete tools for studying complex conditions such as heart failure and the sequelae of myocardial infarction.

But technology is only part of the equation, according to Dr. Javier López-Opitz, INCIC member and cardiologist at Clínica Dávila Vespucio, who sees this study as key to achieving medicine tailored to each person. In his view, correct interpretation of the examination, supported by cardiovascular imaging specialists, is what yields high-value information to define the right treatment.
