BACKGROUND: We sought to identify the independent predictors of blood transfusion requirement in robotic beating-heart patients with totally endoscopic coronary artery bypass (TECAB).
IMPORTANCE: Better prediction of major bleeding after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) may improve clinical decisions aimed to reduce bleeding risk. Machine learning techniques, bolstered by better selection of variables, hold promise for enh...
OBJECTIVES: This study sought to determine whether machine learning can be used to better identify patients at risk for death or congestive heart failure (CHF) rehospitalization after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Background Coronary CT angiography contains prognostic information but the best method to extract these data remains unknown. Purpose To use machine learning to develop a model of vessel features to discriminate between patients with and without subs...

BACKGROUND: This study evaluated the diagnostic capability of on-site coronary computed tomography-derived computational fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) determinations for detecting coronary artery disease (CAD), as assessed by invasive fractional f...
Myocardial perfusion imaging is a non-invasive imaging technique commonly used for the diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease and is based on the injection of radiopharmaceutical tracers into the blood stream. The patient's heart is imaged while at res...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Although grayscale intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is commonly used for assessing coronary lesion morphology and optimizing stent implantation, detection of vulnerable plaques by IVUS remains challenging. We aimed to develop mach...
BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular diseases (CADs) are the first leading cause of death across the world. World Health Organization has estimated that morality rate caused by heart diseases will mount to 23 million cases by 2030. Hence, the use of data minin...
