Update: künstliche Intelligenz im klinischen Alltag 2025

Zusammenfassung

Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) hat sich in den letzten Jahren in unserem Alltag etabliert, z. B. über Sprachassistenten im Handy oder als Chatbot bei einer Terminreservierung. Auch in der kardiovaskulären Medizin überschlagen sich die Meldungen zur Anwendung von künstlicher Intelligenz und Machine Learning (ML). Allein für das Jahr 2024 gibt es bei PubMed über 2000 Ergebnisse unter dem Stichwort „AI in cardiovascular Medicine“. In diesem Artikel sollen einige der neuesten Entwicklungen und Anwendungen von künstlicher Intelligenz in der Kardiologie aus den Bereichen Elektrophysiologie, Bildgebung und Risikostratifikation beleuchtet werden.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) has established itself in our everyday lives in recent years, e.g. via voice assistants in our mobile phones or as a chatbot when booking an appointment. Reports on the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning (ML) are also coming thick and fast in cardiovascular medicine. For the year 2024 alone, PubMed has over 2000 results under the keyword ‘AI in cardiovascular medicine’. This article will highlight some of the latest developments and applications of artificial intelligence in cardiology in the fields of electrophysiology, imaging and risk stratification.
