Coronary artery calcification (CAC) is a key marker of coronary artery disease (CAD) but is often underreported in cancer patients undergoing non-gated CT or PET/CT scans. Traditional CAC assessment requires gated CT scans, leading to increased radia...
BACKGROUND: Visual assessment of coronary CT angiography (CCTA) is time-consuming, influenced by reader experience and prone to interobserver variability. This study evaluated a novel algorithm for coronary stenosis quantification (atherosclerosis im...
PURPOSE: We examined whether end-to-end deep-learning models could detect moderate (≥50%) or severe (≥70%) stenosis in the left anterior descending artery (LAD), right coronary artery (RCA) or left circumflex artery (LCX) in iodine contrast-enhanced ...
OBJECTIVES: The use of deep learning models for quantitative measurements on coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) may reduce inter-reader variability and increase efficiency in clinical reporting. This study aimed to investigate the diagno...

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to determine whether artificial intelligence (AI)-based automated assessment of left atrioventricular coupling index (LACI) can provide incremental value above other traditional risk factors for predicting mortality among...
Segmentation of the coronary artery is an important task for the quantitative analysis of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) images and is being stimulated by the field of deep learning. However, the complex structures with tiny and narr...
PURPOSE: We sought to clinically validate a fully automated deep learning (DL) algorithm for coronary artery disease (CAD) detection and classification in a heterogeneous multivendor cardiac computed tomography angiography data set.
This study aims to develop a computerized classification method for significant coronary artery stenosis on whole-heart coronary magnetic resonance angiography (WHCMRA) images using a 3D convolutional neural network (3D-CNN) with attention mechanisms...
