Background: Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related mortality globally, largely due to delayed diagnosis in its early stages. While conventional diagnostic tools like low-dose CT and tissue biopsy are routinely used, they suffer from limitations including invasiveness, radiation exposure, cost, and limited sensitivity for early-stage detection. Liquid biopsy, a minimally invasive alternative that captures circulating tumor-derived biomarkers such as ctDNA, cfRNA, and exosomes from body fluids, offers promising diagnostic potential—yet its sensitivity in early disease remains suboptimal. Recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and radiomics are poised to bridge this gap. Objective: This review aims to explore how AI, in combination with radiomics, enhances the diagnostic capabilities of liquid biopsy for early detection of lung cancer and facilitates personalized monitoring strategies. Content Overview: We begin by outlining the molecular heterogeneity of lung cancer, emphasizing the need for earlier, more accurate detection strategies. The discussion then transitions into liquid biopsy and its key analytes, followed by an in-depth overview of AI techniques—including machine learning (e.g., SVMs, Random Forest) and deep learning models (e.g., CNNs, RNNs, GANs)—that enable robust pattern recognition across multi-omics datasets. The role of radiomics, which quantitatively extracts spatial and morphological features from imaging modalities such as CT and PET, is explored in conjunction with AI to provide an integrative, multimodal approach. This convergence supports the broader vision of precision medicine by integrating omics data, imaging, and electronic health records. Discussion: The synergy between AI, liquid biopsy, and radiomics signifies a shift from traditional diagnostics toward dynamic, patient-specific decision-making. Radiomics contributes spatial information, while AI improves pattern detection and predictive modeling. Despite these advancements, challenges remain—including data standardization, limited annotated datasets, the interpretability of deep learning models, and ethical considerations. A push toward rigorous validation and multimodal AI frameworks is necessary to facilitate clinical adoption. Conclusion: The integration of AI with liquid biopsy and radiomics holds transformative potential for early lung cancer detection. This non-invasive, scalable, and individualized diagnostic paradigm could significantly reduce lung cancer mortality through timely and targeted interventions. As technology and regulatory pathways mature, collaborative research is crucial to standardize methodologies and translate this innovation into routine clinical practice.

Background: Electrical and dielectric properties of the myocardium depend on its composition, fibrosis, edema, ischemia, and heat damage, and hence may play an important role in defining the electrophysiologic substrate. Local impedance and other impedance-based methods give information about these parameters that is available to clinicians, but not direct or substitutable for intrinsic conductivity and permittivity of the tissue. The use of artificial intelligence has been thoroughly studied for the ECGs, electrograms, images, and computational data analysis, but not for dielectric or impedance measurements. Objective: The study aims to review the scientific basis of dielectric properties of heart muscle critically in cardiology and electrophysiology, to differentiate between existing clinical and conceptual applications of myocardial dielectrics, and to estimate current and potential contributions of artificial intelligence to their interpretation. Data Sources and Study Selection: The current work represents a structured narrative review in PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases from inception until May 2026 based on various combinations of keywords that refer to myocardial impedance, dielectric properties, conductivity, permittivity, local impedance, dielectric imaging, cardiac electrophysiology, catheter ablation, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. This review included experimental, ex vivo, animal, computational, and human studies related to myocardial dielectric properties and their use in electrophysiology. Evidence was classified according to four categories: direct human clinical evidence; preclinical/translation evidence; indirect evidence from related techniques; and extrapolation concept. As a result of heterogeneity between studies, sensing technologies, and outcomes, the results have been analyzed narratively. Key Findings: Evidence regarding the usage of AI algorithms, which have been primarily trained on myocardial dielectric or catheter-based local impedance data, is extremely scarce and mostly consists of preclinical or ex vivo data. On the contrary, the majority of clinically used AI algorithms in the field of electrophysiology make use of ECG data, intracardiac electrogram data, image processing, or computational modeling without any inputs related to dielectrics or local impedance. Conclusions and Implications for Practice: Dielectric sensing is an attractive supplement to traditional methods of voltage mapping and imaging, although the clinical readiness of dielectric sensing greatly varies depending on the application. At the present time, the existing data provide a basis for utilizing the local impedance measurement in the ablation procedure and evaluation of the myocardium properties, while the combination of artificial intelligence and dielectric sensing is still experimental. Before being introduced into the clinical electrophysiology practice, signal acquisition standardization and prospective multicenter trials are needed.

Cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) encompasses a spectrum of disorders arising from bidirectional interactions between the heart and kidneys and is associated with substantial morbidity, mortality, and healthcare burden. Early recognition remains challenging because conventional biomarkers and imaging modalities may inadequately detect subclinical disease or distinguish functional changes from true organ injury. This narrative review examines the epidemiology, classification, pathophysiology, diagnostic approaches, and contemporary management of CRS, with particular emphasis on the emerging role of artificial intelligence (AI). Relevant evidence regarding established and emerging diagnostic and therapeutic approaches was reviewed, including biomarkers, imaging, guideline-directed medical therapy, ultrafiltration, cardiac devices, transplantation, and AI-based applications. Current evidence demonstrates the multifactorial nature of CRS and highlights the importance of early diagnosis and individualized management. Machine learning and deep learning approaches have shown potential to integrate electronic health records, biomarkers, imaging, physiological signals, and multi-omics data to support early detection, risk stratification, outcome prediction, and therapeutic decision-making. AI-assisted approaches may complement conventional diagnostic and management strategies and facilitate more precise and proactive CRS care. However, limitations related to data quality, model interpretability, external validation, and clinical implementation must be addressed before widespread clinical adoption.
