Type-b aortic dissection (AD) is a life-threatening cardiovascular disease and the primary treatment is thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). Due to the lack of a rapid and accurate segmentation technique, the patient-specific postoperative AD...
BACKGROUND: Arteriovenous fistulae (AVF) and Arteriovenous Grafts (AVG) may present a problematic vascular access for renal replacement therapy (RRT), reliant on recurrent specialist nurse and medical evaluation. Dysfunctional accesses are frequently...

PURPOSE: This study aimed to develop a deep learning model for predicting distal aortic remodeling after proximal thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) in patients with Stanford type B aortic dissection (TBAD) using computed tomography angiogra...
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...
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 ...
Feasibility assessment and planning of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) require computed tomography (CT)-based analysis of geometric aortic features to identify adequate landing zones (LZs) for endograft deployment. However, no consensus e...
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to construct a risk prediction model for distal aortic enlargement in patients with type B aortic dissection (TBAD) treated with proximal thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR).
OBJECTIVES: The study evaluates the plausibility and applicability of prediction, pattern recognition and modelling of complications post-endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) by artificial intelligence for more accurate surveillance in practice.

OBJECTIVES: Our objective was to examine the role of the provisional extension to induce complete attachment (PETTICOAT) aortic dissection repair technique with bare metal stents (BMSs) in abdominal remodeling of residual DeBakey type I aortic dissec...
