Today marks the publication of our ABC sizing app validation study. This multicenter study demonstrates that meticulous sizing, utilizing the ABC algorithm, can significantly mitigate the risk of catastrophic root rupture complications in balloon-expandable valves. The app is available on app store for download.
Can Aortic Root Rupture be averted in bicuspid valve anatomy? ABC Sizing Algorithm for Bicuspid Valves Treated with SAPIEN 3. Presented at @TCTConference#NYValves2026 and published simultaneously @docsuleman https://t.co/qJ1QbsTLVQ
Building QuanTAVI, a software that turns heart CT scans into clear decisions for heart valve procedures (which valve to use, risks, and future planning).
Iโm a heart specialist who also builds software, so I understand both the clinical problem and how to solve it.
Edge:
Real doctor + builder (used in real patient workflows, not just a demo)
Helps doctors make decisions, not just measurements (unlike competitors)
Focus on long-term planning for patients, not just one procedure (big shift happening now)
Early stage, looking to scale globally.
If post-dilating of Evolt is being blamed for 6โ7 year failure, maybe we should ask whether the valve remembers crimping - arguably the most aggressive moment of its life ๐
@GilbertTangMD@JACCJournals Very insightful take.
Vendor-independent TAVR selection matters in low-risk patients who will outlive their first valve, an anatomy-driven (not just risk-driven) approach that prioritizes repeatability should guide the first implant. Working on a structured solution - more soon.
@realarainmd@Hragy Would love to see your novel approach!
How do you ensure your gantry rotation is truly orthogonal to CTO?
Our appโs first two modules aim to generate a true orthogonal artery view from fluoro linesโthough the math is still experimental.
@realarainmd@Hragy Thanks ๐. Yes i wanna work on traning AI on ivus images to detect wire and then show a 3d rendered image of wire location just like OCT does. I wanted dicuss that in our meeting that day. Currently im about to finish AI TAVR analysis software and then will need your help on this
@realarainmd sorry guys i was busy lately. you can access it from https://t.co/EuRmbQXixg. the first two section are experimental but the last section (IVUS Wire) is something you want.
@Laserrman@ErwMulia@ISIC_Official Impressive as always. Do you think clockwise rotation of wire tip on ivus require anticlockwise on torquing tool . as catheter takes 180 degree turn and everything is inverted now?
Just wrapped up an incredible time at #NYValves with the @McMasterU team leading three exciting innovation projects:
๐น @docsuleman on gradient correction
๐น Dr. Sheth on TAVR repeatability
๐น I presented our AI-driven model for expansion prediction.
Grateful for the learning, the city, and the momentum. Till we meet again, NYC!

@warkaa21@McMasterU The conference was such a great mix of learning and fun - made even better by attending it with you! Loved exploring New York together! I am really going to miss you at the hospital.
