The objective of this study was to explore the application value of digital subtraction angiography (DSA) images optimized by deep learning algorithms in vascular restenosis patients undergoing cardiovascular intervention and their nursing efficacy. ...
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effect of reader experience, calcification and image quality on the performance of deep learning (DL) powered coronary CT angiography (CCTA) in automatically detecting obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) with inva...
Invasive coronary angiography remains the gold standard for diagnosing coronary artery disease, which may be complicated by both, patient-specific anatomy and image quality. Deep learning techniques aimed at detecting coronary artery stenoses may fac...
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to investigate the safety and feasibility of using a deep learning algorithm to calculate computed tomography angiography-based fractional flow reserve (DL-FFRCT) as an alternative to invasive coronary angiography (ICA) in ...

BACKGROUND: Deep learning (DL) has achieved great success in medical imaging and could be utilized for the non-invasive calculation of fractional flow reserve (FFR) from coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) (CT-FFR).
Cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is widely used as a diagnostic tool for evaluation of coronary artery disease (CAD). Despite the excellent capability to rule-out CAD, CCTA may overestimate the degree of stenosis; furthermore, CCTA anal...
