Comparative analysis of pre-transcatheter aortic valve implantation CTA protocols: Optimizing radiation dose and contrast volume.

International journal of cardiology
BACKGROUND: To establish the most effective and safe pre-transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) CT angiography (CTA) protocol by comparing two approaches in terms of image quality, radiation and contrast dose.

Machine learning-based hemodynamics quantitative assessment of pulmonary circulation using computed tomographic pulmonary angiography.

International journal of cardiology
BACKGROUND: Pulmonary hypertension (pH) is a malignant pulmonary circulation disease. Right heart catheterization (RHC) is the gold standard procedure for quantitative evaluation of pulmonary hemodynamics. Accurate and noninvasive quantitative evalua...

Deep Learning-Enhanced CTA for Noninvasive Prediction of First Variceal Haemorrhage in Cirrhosis: A Multi-Centre Study.

Liver international : official journal of the International Association for the Study of the Liver
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The first variceal haemorrhage (FVH) is a life-threatening complication of liver cirrhosis that requires timely intervention; however, noninvasive tools for accurately predicting FVH remain limited. This study aimed to develop no...

Computed Tomography Advancements in Plaque Analysis: From Histology to Comprehensive Plaque Burden Assessment.

Echocardiography (Mount Kisco, N.Y.)
Advancements in coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) facilitated the transition from traditional histological approaches to comprehensive plaque burden assessment. Recent updates in the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines empha...

Acquisition and Reconstruction Techniques for Coronary CT Angiography: Current Status and Trends over the Past Decade.

Radiographics : a review publication of the Radiological Society of North America, Inc
Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) has been widely used as a noninvasive modality for accurate assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD) in clinical settings. However, the following limitations of CCTA remain issues of interest: motion, stair-step, and...

Meta-analysis of AI-based pulmonary embolism detection: How reliable are deep learning models?

Computers in biology and medicine
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Deep learning (DL)-based methods show promise in detecting pulmonary embolism (PE) on CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA), potentially improving diagnostic accuracy and workflow efficiency. This meta-analysis aimed to (1) determ...

Radiation and contrast dose reduction in coronary CT angiography for slender patients with 70 kV tube voltage and deep learning image reconstruction.

The British journal of radiology
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the radiation and contrast dose reduction potential of combining 70 kV with deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) in coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) for slender patients with body-mass-index (BMI) ≤25 kg/m2.
