AIMS: To analyse the predictive capacity of 15 machine learning methods for estimating cardiovascular risk in a cohort and to compare them with other risk scales.
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has become one of the most serious diseases that threaten human health. Over the past decades, over 150 million humans have died of CVDs. Hence, timely prediction of CVDs is especially important. Currently, deep learning ...
Typically, a medical image offers spatial information on the anatomy (and pathology) modulated by imaging specific characteristics. Many imaging modalities including Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography (CT) can be interpreted in ...

Echocardiography has a central role in the diagnosis and management of cardiovascular disease. Precise and reliable echocardiographic assessment is required for clinical decision-making. Even if the development of new technologies (3-dimentional echo...
BACKGROUND: Identifying people at risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) is a cornerstone of preventative cardiology. Risk prediction models currently recommended by clinical guidelines are typically based on a limited number of predictors with sub-op...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Patients with End- Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD) have a unique cardiovascular risk. This study aims at predicting, with a certain precision, death and cardiovascular diseases in dialysis patients.
Heart and circulatory diseases cause a quarter of all deaths in the UK and cardiac imaging offers an effective tool for early diagnosis and risk-stratification to improve premature death and disability. This domain of radiology is unique in that asse...

BACKGROUND: The All Patient-Refined Diagnosis-Related Groups (APR-DRGs) system has adjusted the basic DRG structure by incorporating four severity of illness (SOI) levels, which are used for determining hospital payment. A comprehensive report of all...
This work reports a multilead interval measurement algorithm for a high-resolution digital electrocardiograph. The software enables off-line ECG processing including detection as well as an accurate multilead interval detection algorithm using sup...
