Accurate prediction of coronary artery disease (CAD) is crucial for enabling early clinical diagnosis and tailoring personalized treatment options. This study attempts to construct a machine learning (ML) model for predicting CAD risk and further elu...
Objective The present study evaluated the usefulness of machine learning (ML) models with the coronary computed tomography imaging and clinical parameters for predicting major adverse cardiac events (MACEs). Methods The Nationwide Gender-specific Ath...
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study (EPIDIAB) was to assess the relationship between epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and the micro and macrovascular complications (MVC) of type 2 diabetes (T2D).
The advent of large language models (LLMs) marks a transformative leap in natural language processing, offering unprecedented potential in radiology, particularly in enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of coronary artery disease (CAD) diagnosis. Wh...
BACKGROUND: Stress myocardial perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging (MPI) has been used to diagnose and predict the prognoses of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). An ongoing multicenter collaboration establis...

Vessel border detection in IVUS images is essential for coronary disease diagnosis. It helps to obtain the clinical indices on the inner vessel morphology to indicate the stenosis. However, the existing methods suffer the challenge of scale-dependent...
BACKGROUND: Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) often have coronary artery disease (CAD), but the biological link between them remains unclear. This study aims to explore the common pathogenesis of AF and CAD and identify common biomarkers.
