A Deep Learning Framework for Design and Analysis of Surgical Bioprosthetic Heart Valves
Bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) are commonly used as heart valve replacements but they are prone to fatigue failure; estimating their remaining life directly from medical images is difficult.

Bioprosthetic Heart Valves: Upgrading a 50-Year Old Technology
Prosthetic heart valves have been commonly used to address the increasing prevalence of valvular heart disease. The ideal prosthetic heart valve substitute should closely mimic the characteristics of a normal native heart valve.

SUMMARY This paper summarizes the experience in the treatment of a series of 1,370 cases of open-heart surgery. Of these, 964 valvular lesions and the associated pathologic lesion are analyzed. Details of correction and immediate and late results in the treatment of the following groups of lesions were studied: 74 cases of congenital aortic stenosis ...
