About this trial

Single center, open-label, phase IV clinical trial to study the application of radiomics in molecular imaging for diagnosis and follow-up of CVDIs. The study will include three populations:

* Retrospective cohort (2018-2025) * Prospective cohort (2026-2027) * Control group (prospective)

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Age ≥ 18 years.

Implanted cardiovascular device (prosthetic valve, TAVI, CIED, vascular graft/endograft).

For infected cohorts: patients studied by FDG-PET with definitive diagnosis of CVDI based on multidisciplinary evaluation.

For control group: no clinical suspicion of infection at time of inclusion.

Disqualifiers

Inability to undergo FDG-PET due to contraindications (e.g., allergies, claustrophobia).

Pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Incomplete clinical data or lack of access to imaging studies.

Refusal or withdrawal of informed consent (for control and prospective cohort).
