Coronary artery disease poses a significant threat to human health. In clinical settings, coronary angiography remains the gold standard for diagnosing coronary heart disease. A crucial aspect of this diagnosis involves detecting arterial narrowings....
The importance of 3D reconstruction of coronary arteries using multiple coronary angiography (CAG) images has been increasingly recognized in the field of cardiovascular disease management. This process relies on the camera matrix's optimization, nee...
BACKGROUND: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS), specifically ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction is a major cause of morbidity and mortality throughout Europe. Diagnosis in the acute setting is mainly based on clinical symptoms and physician's inte...

AIM: Exercise stress ECG is a common diagnostic test for stable coronary artery disease, but its sensitivity and specificity need to be further improved. In this paper, we construct a machine learning model for the prediction of angiographic coronary...
STUDY OBJECTIVE: Although the importance of primary percutaneous coronary intervention has been emphasized for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), the appropriateness of the cardiac catheterization laboratory activation remains subopt...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) is a new invasive indicator of myocardial ischaemia, and its diagnostic performance is as good as the "gold standard" of myocardial ischaemia diagnosis: fractional flow reserve (FFR). iFR...
PURPOSE: To develop and validate a deep learning (DL)-model for automatic reconstruction for coronary CT angiography (CCTA) in patients with origin anomaly, stent or bypass graft.
PURPOSE: To develop a new MR coronary angiography (MRCA) technique by employing a zigzag fan-shaped centric k-k k-space trajectory combined with high-resolution deep learning reconstruction (HR-DLR).
