A Deep Learning Approach to Visualize Aortic Aneurysm Morphology Without the Use of Intravenous Contrast Agents.

Annals of surgery
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...

Deep learning enables genetic analysis of the human thoracic aorta.

Nature genetics
Enlargement or aneurysm of the aorta predisposes to dissection, an important cause of sudden death. We trained a deep learning model to evaluate the dimensions of the ascending and descending thoracic aorta in 4.6 million cardiac magnetic resonance i...

A Deep Learning Pipeline to Automate High-Resolution Arterial Segmentation With or Without Intravenous Contrast.

Annals of surgery
BACKGROUND: Existing methods to reconstruct vascular structures from a computerized tomography (CT) angiogram rely on contrast injection to enhance the radio-density within the vessel lumen. However, pathological changes in the vasculature may be pre...

Fully automatic segmentation of type B aortic dissection from CTA images enabled by deep learning.

European journal of radiology
PURPOSE: This study sought to establish a robust and fully automated Type B aortic dissection (TBAD) segmentation method by leveraging the emerging deep learning techniques.

Feature selection through validation and un-censoring of endovascular repair survival data for predicting the risk of re-intervention.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Feature selection (FS) process is essential in the medical area as it reduces the effort and time needed for physicians to measure unnecessary features. Choosing useful variables is a difficult task with the presence of censoring which is...

A machine learning approach to investigate the relationship between shape features and numerically predicted risk of ascending aortic aneurysm.

Biomechanics and modeling in mechanobiology
Geometric features of the aorta are linked to patient risk of rupture in the clinical decision to electively repair an ascending aortic aneurysm (AsAA). Previous approaches have focused on relationship between intuitive geometric features (e.g., diam...
