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 ...
The underuse of invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR) in clinical practice has motivated research towards non-invasive prediction of FFR. Although the non-invasive derivation of FFR (FFR) using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) principles has becom...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The standard non-invasive imaging technique used to assess the severity and extent of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA). However, manual grading of each patient's CCTA according...
PURPOSE: To evaluate a novel deep learning (DL)-based automated coronary labeling approach for structured reporting of coronary artery disease according to the guidelines of the Society of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography (CT) on coronary CT angiog...
Fractional flow reserve derived from coronary CT (FFR-CT) is a noninvasive physiological technique that has shown a good correlation with invasive FFR. However, the use of FFR-CT is restricted by strict application standards, and the diagnostic accur...
The aim of this review is to introduce some applications of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms for the detection and quantification of coronary stenosis using computed tomography angiography (CTA). The realization of automatic/semi-automatic ste...
