Advancements in Artificial Intelligence for Enhanced Diagnosis and Prognosis in Cardiac CT: a Comprehensive Review and Future Perspectives.
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purpose of reviewCardiovascular disease, with coronary artery disease (CAD) as its main culprit, remains a leading cause of death worldwide. Traditional diagnostic methods that focus on the degree of arterial narrowing (percent diameter stenosis, or %DS) can miss early signs of disease or the specific plaque features that indicate high risk. The purpose of this review is to examine how artificial intelligence (AI) can enhance the diagnostic and prognostic capabilities of cardiac computed tomography (CCT), and to address where AI can most meaningfully improve diagnostic accuracy, workflow efficiency, and patient care. RECENT
findingsAI is transforming cardiac CT across the entire imaging pathway. By applying AI algorithms, recent studies have refined the assessment of coronary artery calcium (CAC), improved plaque characterization, and detected subtle lesions that might evade traditional detection methods. AI further enables non-invasive assessment of ischemia (reduced blood flow), aids in the evaluation of myocardial infarction, analyzes adipose tissue surrounding the heart, improves image quality, and provides valuable prognostic insights for risk stratification. This comprehensive review explores the transformative potential of AI in cardiac CT, highlighting its role in accurate diagnosis, precise risk stratification, and personalized management of cardiovascular disease. Through collaboration between AI technology and clinical expertise, we envision a future where cardiac CT imaging is more powerful, efficient, and patient-centered, ultimately leading to improved outcomes in cardiovascular medicine. Continued standardization, external validation, and clinician education will be essential to realize this impact in routine practice.
