Dr. Attizzani, an interventional cardiologist at University Hospitals in Cleveland, Ohio, is a leading authority in TAVR and other structural heart interventions. Dr. Attizzani’s innovative research and clinical practice have had a profound impact on the field of structural heart. He has authored more than 135 peer-reviewed articles and led 15 clinical trials.

Dr.Jilaihawi, a cardiologist at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, is a highly respected physician focusing on advanced imaging technologies for transcatheter valve therapies. He is an internationally recognized cardiac imager and interventional cardiologist who has published more than 100 peer-reviewed manuscripts in journals including the New England Journal of Medicine, the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, and the European Heart Journal, and is a frequent speaker at industry conferences.

Dr. Leon, an interventional cardiologist at Columbia University in New York City, is an internationally recognized expert and pioneer in valvular heart disease and transcatheter interventions. With more than 40 years of experience, Dr. Leon has made significant contributions to the field of interventional cardiovascular medicine through his involvement in more than 50 clinical trials, more than 1,550 published articles, and more than 10,000 interventional procedures.

“We have come a long way in the evolution of procedural planning for structural heart procedures,” said Dr. Jilaihawi. “However, there are limits in the ability of even the most experienced imagers and interventionists to predict outcomes. DASI Simulations push those limits, minimizing guess work through an engineering-driven, precision medicine approach with the focused objective of optimizing not only immediate results, but lifetime management of our patients, too.”

“DASI Simulations delivers unique planning for TAVR as it goes beyond sizing with predictive modeling that can help candidacy of future TAV-in-TAV and coronary access,” said Dr. Attizzani. “I am thrilled to work with the DASI Simulations team toward helping optimize decision making and improve outcomes.”

“Our new Medical Advisory Board members will join me and other experts for a special breakfast presentation coinciding with the upcoming TCT in Washington, D.C.,” said DASI Co-founder and CTO Lakshmi (Prasad) Dasi, PhD. Titled “Next Generation TAVR Planning with DASI Simulations: Artificial Intelligence and Prediction Based Algorithms”, the satellite breakfast event will be held Tuesday, October 29, from 6:15 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. EDT, in Room 207B, Level 2, Walter E. Washington Convention Center.

We’re honored to welcome these exceptional physicians to DASI. The Medical Advisory Board plays a crucial role in advising DASI on strategic initiatives, research, product development, and clinical best practices,” said Sirset. “With the addition of these renowned physicians, DASI is well-positioned to meet the evolving needs of its patients and the healthcare community within structural heart and beyond.”
