Emerging Feature Extraction Techniques for Machine Learning-Based Classification of Carotid Artery Ultrasound Images.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Plaque deposits in the carotid artery are the major cause of stroke and atherosclerosis. Ultrasound imaging is used as an early indicator of disease progression. Classification of the images to identify plaque presence and intima-media thickness (IMT...

Deep Neural Networks Can Accurately Detect Blood Loss and Hemorrhage Control Task Success From Video.

Neurosurgery
BACKGROUND: Deep neural networks (DNNs) have not been proven to detect blood loss (BL) or predict surgeon performance from video.

Cardiovascular disease detection using machine learning and carotid/femoral arterial imaging frameworks in rheumatoid arthritis patients.

Rheumatology international
The study proposes a novel machine learning (ML) paradigm for cardiovascular disease (CVD) detection in individuals at medium to high cardiovascular risk using data from a Greek cohort of 542 individuals with rheumatoid arthritis, or diabetes mellitu...

A hybrid deep learning paradigm for carotid plaque tissue characterization and its validation in multicenter cohorts using a supercomputer framework.

Computers in biology and medicine
BACKGROUND: Early and automated detection of carotid plaques prevents strokes, which are the second leading cause of death worldwide according to the World Health Organization. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers automated solutions for plaque tissue...

Automated deep learning-based paradigm for high-risk plaque detection in B-mode common carotid ultrasound scans: an asymptomatic Japanese cohort study.

International angiology : a journal of the International Union of Angiology
BACKGROUND: The death due to stroke is caused by embolism of the arteries which is due to the rupture of the atherosclerotic lesions in carotid arteries. The lesion formation is over time, and thus, early screening is recommended for asymptomatic and...

Ultrasound deep learning for monitoring of flow-vessel dynamics in murine carotid artery.

Ultrasonics
Several arterial diseases are closely related with mechanical properties of the blood vessel and interactions of flow-vessel dynamics such as mean flow velocity, wall shear stress (WSS) and vascular strain. However, there is an opportunity to improve...

A Generalized Approach for Automatic 3-D Geometry Assessment of Blood Vessels in Transverse Ultrasound Images Using Convolutional Neural Networks.

IEEE transactions on ultrasonics, ferroelectrics, and frequency control
Accurate 3-D geometries of arteries and veins are important clinical data for diagnosis of arterial disease and intervention planning. Automatic segmentation of vessels in the transverse view suffers from the low lateral resolution and contrast. Conv...

Multilevel Strip Pooling-Based Convolutional Neural Network for the Classification of Carotid Plaque Echogenicity.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
Carotid plaque echogenicity in ultrasound images has been found to be closely correlated with the risk of stroke in atherosclerotic patients. The automatic and accurate classification of carotid plaque echogenicity is of great significance for clinic...

Deep Learning-Based Measurement of Total Plaque Area in B-Mode Ultrasound Images.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Measurement of total-plaque-area (TPA) is important for determining long term risk for stroke and monitoring carotid plaque progression. Since delineation of carotid plaques is required, a deep learning method can provide automatic plaque segmentatio...

Hybrid deep learning segmentation models for atherosclerotic plaque in internal carotid artery B-mode ultrasound.

Computers in biology and medicine
The automated and accurate carotid plaque segmentation in B-mode ultrasound (US) is an essential part of stroke risk stratification. Previous segmented methods used AtheroEdgeâ„¢ 2.0 (AtheroPointâ„¢, Roseville, CA) for the common carotid artery (CCA). Th...
