BACKGROUND: Intravenous contrast agents are routinely used in CT imaging to enable the visualization of intravascular pathology, such as with abdominal aortic aneurysms. However, the injection is contraindicated in patients with iodine allergy and is...
Prediction of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) growth is of essential importance for the early treatment and surgical intervention of AAA. Capturing key features of vascular growth, such as blood flow and intraluminal thrombus (ILT) accumulation play ...
BACKGROUND: Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are often identified incidentally on imaging studies. Patients and/or providers are frequently unaware of these AAA and the need for long-term follow-up. We sought to evaluate the outcome of a nurse-naviga...
INTRODUCTION: Although rare, as the population ages, abdominal aortic aneurysm synchronous to abdominal malignancies, as renal cell carcinoma, is expected to become more prevalent. There are only two case reports of minimally invasive surgeries to tr...

PURPOSE: Modern endovascular hybrid operating rooms generate large amounts of medical images during a procedure, which are currently mostly assessed by eye. In this paper, we present fully automatic segmentation of the stent graft on the completion d...
Identifying biomarkers for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) is key to understanding their pathogenesis, developing novel targeted therapeutics, and possibly improving patients outcomes and risk of rupture. Here, we identified AAA biomarkers from publ...
OBJECTIVE: Endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) surveillance relies on serial measurements of the maximal diameter despite significant inter- and intraobserver variability. Volumetric measurements are more sensitive; however, their general use has been ...
OBJECTIVES: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), a disease with high mortality, is limited by the current diagnostic methods in the early screening. This study aimed to screen novel and significant biomarkers and construct a diagnostic model for AAA by u...

PURPOSE: Although segmentation of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (AAA) thrombus is a crucial step for both the planning of endovascular treatment and the monitoring of the intervention's outcome, it is still performed manually implying time consuming ope...
