Med School Café to address artificial intelligence and women’s heart disease

Amod Amritphale, M.D., an interventional cardiologist with USA Health and assistant professor of internal medicine at the USA College of Medicine, will present “Artificial Intelligence and Women’s Heart Disease” at the Med School Café lecture on Friday, July 23, at 2 p.m. The event will be held virtually via Zoom.

Register for the lecture on Zoom.

Amritphale will discuss how computer-based methods may be beneficial in diagnosing and treating heart disease and preventing hospital readmission rates.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death for women in the United States. Amritphale hopes to educate women on ways to prevent the disease as well as spotting symptoms of heart issues, which are not always easily identifiable in women. 

Med School Café is a free community lecture series sponsored by USA Health. Each month, faculty and physicians share their expertise on a specific medical condition, providing insight on the latest treatments available.
