PURPOSE: To evaluate the effects of deep learning reconstruction (DLR) in qualitative and quantitative image quality of non-contrast magnetic resonance coronary angiography (MRCA).
BACKGROUND: Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) volume (cm) and attenuation (Hounsfield units) may predict major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). We aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of fully automated deep learning-based EAT volume and attenua...
BACKGROUND: Myocardial perfusion reflects the macro- and microvascular coronary circulation. Recent quantitation developments using cardiovascular magnetic resonance perfusion permit automated measurement clinically. We explored the prognostic signif...
BACKGROUND: Machine learning (ML) has arrived in medicine to deliver individually adapted medical care. This study sought to use ML to discriminate stent restenosis (SR) compared with existing predictive scores of SR. To develop an easily applicable ...
PURPOSE: To rapidly reconstruct undersampled 3D non-Cartesian image-based navigators (iNAVs) using an unrolled deep learning (DL) model, enabling nonrigid motion correction in coronary magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA).
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of image quality of coronary CT angiography (CCTA) on the diagnostic performance of a machine learning-based CT-derived fractional flow reserve (FFR).
