BACKGROUND: Quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) offers objective and reproducible measures of coronary lesions. However, significant inter- and intra-observer variability and time-consuming processes hinder the practical application of on-site QC...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Heart failure (HF) is a multi-faceted and life-threatening syndrome that affects more than 64.3 million people worldwide. Current gold-standard screening technique, echocardiography, neglects cardiovascular information regul...
OBJECTIVES: To compare the diagnostic performance of machine learning (ML)-based computed tomography-derived fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) and cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) perfusion mapping for functional assessment of coronary stenosis.
AIM: The present study evaluated with myocardial perfusion SPECT (MPS) the diagnostic accuracy of an artificial intelligence-enabled vectorcardiography system (Cardisiography, CSG) for detection of perfusion abnormalities.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the capabilities of photon-counting (PC) CT combined with artificial intelligence-derived coronary computed tomography angiography (PC-CCTA) stenosis quantification and fractional flow reserve predic...
OBJECTIVES: Utilising readily available clinical variables, we aimed to develop and validate a novel machine learning (ML) model to predict severe coronary calcification, and further assessed its prognostic significance.
Coronary artery segmentation is critical for coronary artery disease diagnosis but challenging due to its tortuous course with numerous small branches and inter-subject variations. Most existing studies ignore important anatomical information and vas...
This study aimed to design an end-to-end deep learning model for estimating the value of fractional flow reserve (FFR) using angiography images to classify left anterior descending (LAD) branch angiography images with average stenosis between 50 and ...
