OBJECTIVE: Atherosclerosis (AS) is the main pathological basis of ischemic cardio-cerebrovascular diseases, and the intimal thickness (IT) of large arteries is regarded as a powerful evaluation indicator for AS. We established an effective neural net...
The measurement of Carotid Intima Media Thickness (IMT) on Common Carotid Artery (CCA) is a principle marker of risk of cardiovascular disease. This paper presents a novel method of using deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for identification and...
MOTIVATION: The carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) is an important biomarker for cardiovascular diseases and stroke monitoring. This study presents an intelligence-based, novel, robust, and clinically-strong strategy that uses a combination of dee...
