In the last decade, technical advances in the field of medical imaging significantly improved and broadened the application of coronary CT angiography (CCTA) for the non-invasive assessment of coronary artery disease. Recently, similar breakthroughs ...
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to compare the image quality of coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) subjected to deep learning-based image restoration (DLR) method with images subjected to hybrid iterative reconstruction (IR).
PURPOSE: In multiphase coronary CT angiography (CTA), a series of CT images are taken at different levels of radiation dose during the examination. Although this reduces the total radiation dose, the image quality during the low-dose phases is signif...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Thrombus characteristics identified on non-contrast CT (NCCT) are potentially associated with recanalization with intravenous (IV) alteplase in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Our aim was to determine the best radio...
OBJECTIVES: We sought to investigate the diagnostic performance of coronary CT angiography (cCTA)-derived plaque markers combined with deep machine learning-based fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) to identify lesion-specific ischemia using invasive FF...
Various types of atherosclerotic plaque and varying grades of stenosis could lead to different management of patients with a coronary artery disease. Therefore, it is crucial to detect and classify the type of coronary artery plaque, as well as to de...
Excellent image quality is a primary prerequisite for diagnostic non-invasive coronary CT angiography. Artifacts due to cardiac motion may interfere with detection and diagnosis of coronary artery disease and render subsequent treatment decisions mor...
