Automated detection of intracranial artery stenosis and occlusion in magnetic resonance angiography: A preliminary study based on deep learning.

Magnetic resonance imaging
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis of a major intracranial artery is the common cause of ischemic stroke. We evaluate the feasibility of using deep learning to automatically detect intracranial arterial steno-occlusive l...

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...

Machine learning for detection of stenoses and aneurysms: application in a physiologically realistic virtual patient database.

Biomechanics and modeling in mechanobiology
This study presents an application of machine learning (ML) methods for detecting the presence of stenoses and aneurysms in the human arterial system. Four major forms of arterial disease-carotid artery stenosis (CAS), subclavian artery stenosis (SAS...

Computational methods to automate the initial interpretation of lower extremity arterial Doppler and duplex carotid ultrasound studies.

Journal of vascular surgery
BACKGROUND: Lower extremity arterial Doppler (LEAD) and duplex carotid ultrasound studies are used for the initial evaluation of peripheral arterial disease and carotid stenosis. However, intra- and inter-laboratory variability exists between interpr...

Robot-Assisted Carotid Artery Stenting: A Safety and Feasibility Study.

Cardiovascular and interventional radiology
PURPOSE: Endovascular robotics is an emerging technology within the developing field of medical robotics. This was a prospective evaluation to assess safety and feasibility of robotic-assisted carotid artery stenting.

Ultrasound-based internal carotid artery plaque characterization using deep learning paradigm on a supercomputer: a cardiovascular disease/stroke risk assessment system.

The international journal of cardiovascular imaging
Visual or manual characterization and classification of atherosclerotic plaque lesions are tedious, error-prone, and time-consuming. The purpose of this study is to develop and design an automated carotid plaque characterization and classification sy...

Robotic-assisted balloon angioplasty and stent placement with distal embolic protection device for severe carotid artery stenosis in a high-risk surgical patient.

Catheterization and cardiovascular interventions : official journal of the Society for Cardiac Angiography & Interventions
The use of robotic assistance in endovascular interventions may facilitate smoother procedures with fewer device manipulations, improve precision and accuracy of device deployment, and reduce exposure to fluoroscopic radiation. We used the CorPath GR...
