BACKGROUND: Epicardial adipose tissue represents a metabolically active visceral fat depot that is in direct contact with the left ventricular myocardium. While it is associated with coronary artery disease, little is known regarding its role in aort...

Differentiating normal from minimally and mildly diseased coronary arteries on coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) is crucial, impacting treatment decisions due to the extremely low coronary artery event risk associated with the former. ...
Traditional methods for diagnosing chronic kidney disease (CKD) via laboratory data may not be capable of identifying early kidney disease. Kidney biopsy is unsuitable for regular screening, and imaging tests are costly and time-consuming. Several st...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The significance of left ventricular mass and chamber volumes from non-contrast computed tomography (CT) for predicting major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) has not been studied. Our objective was to evaluate the role of ar...

INTRODUCTION: Coronary artery calcium (CAC) scans contain useful information beyond the Agatston CAC score that is not currently reported. We recently reported that artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled cardiac chambers volumetry in CAC scans (AI-CAC™...
BACKGROUND: The burden of asymptomatic left ventricular dysfunction (LVD) is greater than that of heart failure; however, a cost-effective tool for asymptomatic LVD screening has not been well validated. We aimed to prospectively validate an artifici...
For years, hepatologists have been seeking non-invasive methods able to detect significant liver fibrosis. However, no previous algorithm using routine blood markers has proven to be clinically appropriate in primary care. We present a novel approach...
Carotid atherosclerosis (CAS) is a risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, but duplex ultrasonography isn't recommended in routine screening for asymptomatic populations according to medical guidelines. We aim to develop machine le...
Previous studies applying machine learning methods to psychosis have primarily been concerned with the binary classification of chronic schizophrenia patients and healthy controls. The aim of this study was to use electroencephalographic (EEG) data a...
