While coronary CT angiography (CCTA) is crucial for detecting several coronary artery diseases, it fails to provide essential hemodynamic parameters for early detection and treatment. These parameters can be easily obtained by performing computationa...
Percutaneous coronary intervention is widely applied for the treatment of coronary artery disease under the guidance of X-ray coronary angiography (XCA) image. However, the projective nature of XCA causes the loss of 3D structural information, which ...
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate whether a deep learning reconstruction (DLR) method improves the image quality, stent evaluation, and visibility of the valve apparatus in coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) when compared with f...
The implementation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) still faces significant hurdles and one key factor is the access to data. One approach that could support that is federated machine learning (FL) since it allows for privacy preserving data access. F...

Coronary CTA with hybrid iterative reconstruction (HIR) is prone to false-positive results for in-stent restenosis due to stent-related blooming artifact. The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of deep learning reconstruction (DLR), subt...
Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging allows direct visualization of the coronary vessel wall and is suitable for assessing atherosclerosis and the degree of stenosis. Accurate segmentation and lumen and median-adventitia (MA) measurements from IVU...
PURPOSE: Coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) plays a vital role in the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases, among which automatic coronary artery segmentation (CAS) serves as one of the most challenging tasks. To computationally assist ...
