PURPOSE: Strokes are severe cardiovascular and circulatory diseases with two main types: ischemic and hemorrhagic. Clinically, brain images such as computed tomography (CT) and computed tomography angiography (CTA) are widely used to recognize stroke...
Accurate segmentation of coronary artery tree and personalized 3D printing from medical images is essential for CAD diagnosis and treatment. The current literature on 3D printing relies solely on generic models created with different software or 3D c...

This study assesses the agreement of Artificial Intelligence-Quantitative Computed Tomography (AI-QCT) with qualitative approaches to atherosclerotic disease burden codified in the multisociety 2022 CAD-RADS 2.0 Expert Consensus. 105 patients who und...
PURPOSE: This study aimed to construct a predictive model integrating deep learning-derived radiomic features from computed tomography angiography (CTA) and clinical biomarkers to forecast postoperative adverse events (AEs) in patients with acute unc...
Pulmonary Embolisms (PE) represent a leading cause of cardiovascular death. While medical imaging, through computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA), represents the gold standard for PE diagnosis, it is still susceptible to misdiagnosis or si...
