This work is intended to be a guide for cardiologists unfamiliar with artificial intelligence, as well as for engineers and data scientists unfamiliar with cardiology. To the best of our knowledge, there is currently a lack of similar work presenting the current state of the art on the use of artificial intelligence-based models in cardiology. Similarly, there is a paucity of texts that thoroughly discuss the pros and cons of using this cutting-edge technology in the field of cardiology, both in routine clinical practice and in the context of research.
This volume will be of interest to all those interested in the application of artificial intelligence in the medical field, and specifically in cardiology.

Patrizia Presbitero is a consultant of Interventional Cardiology at the Humanitas Research Hospital of Rozzano Milano, Italy. After training at the National Heart hospital , Sick Children Hospital and Brompton Hospital in London and in the Catheterization Laboratory in Nieuwegein Utrecht, she became Responsible of the Catheterisation Laboratory of the University of Torino and then Director of Interventional Cardiology of Humanitas Research Hospital . In her clinical practice, she employs the most advanced devices and technologies made available to interventional cardiologists. Her research interests focus on congenital , valvular heart diseases and on heart disease in women and during pregnancy .On this subject she wrote 2 books, The heart of women and "Percutaneous Treatment of Cardiovascular Diseases in Women". She is also author of more than 300 articles in top peer reviewed journal in the cardiovascular field.
Mauro Chiarito is a cardiologist working at the Interventional Cardiology at the Humanitas Research Hospital of Rozzano Milano, Italy. He authored more than 100 articles in top peer reviewed journals in the cardiovascular field,
especially on antithrombotic strategies, percutaneous cardiac interventions (structural or coronary) and heart failure.
Alessandro Giaj Levra is a cardiology fellow, showcasing a distinguished record with published contributions in peer-reviewed journals and books at the intersection of cardiology and artificial intelligence.
