PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate an algorithm that can automatically estimate the amount of coronary artery calcium (CAC) from unenhanced electrocardiography (ECG)-gated computed tomography (CT) cardiac volume acquisitio...
Visualizing dynamic processes over large, three-dimensional fields of view at high speed is essential for many applications in the life sciences. Light-field microscopy (LFM) has emerged as a tool for fast volumetric image acquisition, but its effect...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) in diagnostic radiology is undergoing rapid development. Its potential utility to improve diagnostic performance for cardiopulmonary events is widely recognized, but the accuracy and precision have yet to be d...
Spiking information of individual neurons is essential for functional and behavioral analysis in neuroscience research. Calcium imaging techniques are generally employed to obtain activities of neuronal populations. However, these techniques result i...
PURPOSE: We aimed to develop a deep learning (DL)-based algorithm for automated quantification of aortic valve calcium (AVC) from non-enhanced electrocardiogram-gated cardiac CT scans and compare performance of DL-measured AVC volume and Agatston sco...
Coronary artery calcium is an accurate predictor of cardiovascular events. While it is visible on all computed tomography (CT) scans of the chest, this information is not routinely quantified as it requires expertise, time, and specialized equipment....
BACKGROUND: Assessment of both coronary artery calcium(CAC) scores and myocardial perfusion imaging(MPI) in patients suspected of coronary artery disease(CAD) provides incremental prognostic information. We used an automated method to determine CAC s...
Cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is widely used as a diagnostic tool for evaluation of coronary artery disease (CAD). Despite the excellent capability to rule-out CAD, CCTA may overestimate the degree of stenosis; furthermore, CCTA anal...
