Background: Stroke is a potential complication of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR). Recent trials evaluating Cerebral Embolic Protection Systems (CEPS) to reduce the incidence of stroke after TAVR have been conflicting.
Methods: Multiple databases were searched for studies comparing TAVR with or without CEPS and that reported on the primary outcome of periprocedural stroke.
This article explores the significant impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on radiology through a comprehensive analysis of eight articles published between 2018 and 2024. With the rapid progress of modern science, the diagnostic methods in medicine are subject to change, which creates the need to consider and evaluate new diagnostic techniques such as artificial intelligence. In our study, we will evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of artificial intelligence and radiological image interpretation, as well as the pros and cons of its use and future development prospects in this field.

- * A total of 19 studies with 1,498 patients show high technical success (98.8%) and clinical success (94.1%), with most patients (89.2%) experiencing control of ascites post-procedure.
- * While there are some adverse events, including a 25.1% incidence of post-TIPS hepatic encephalopathy, overall results support the use of TIPS as a feasible management option for these patients.
