Purpose:
To explore the expanding role of artificial intelligence (AI) in managing aortic valve stenosis (AVS) by bibliometric analysis to identify research trends, key contributors, and the impact of AI on enhancing diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for AVS.
Methods:
A comprehensive literature review was conducted using the Web of Science database, covering publications from January 1990 to March 2024. Articles were analyzed with bibliometric tools such as CiteSpace and VOSviewer to identify key research trends, core authors, institutions, and research hotspots in AI applications for AVS.
Results:
A total of 118 articles were analyzed, showing a significant increase in publications from 2014 onwards. The results highlight the growing impact of AI in AVS, particularly in cardiac imaging and predictive modeling. Core authors and institutions, primarily from the U.S. and Germany, are driving research in this field. Key research hotspots include machine learning applications in diagnostics and personalized treatment strategies.
Conclusions:
AI is playing a transformative role in the diagnosis and treatment of AVS, improving accuracy and personalizing therapeutic approaches. Despite the progress, challenges such as model transparency and data security remain. Future research should focus on overcoming these challenges while enhancing collaboration among international institutions to further advance AI applications in cardiovascular medicine.
