INTRODUCTION: Deep learning approaches have shown high diagnostic performance in image classifications, such as differentiation of malignant tumors and calcified coronary plaque. However, it is unknown whether deep learning is useful for characterizi...
Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is a diagnostic modality used during percutaneous coronary intervention. However, specialist skills are required to interpret IVUS images. To address this issue, we developed a new artificial intelligence (AI) program ...
Cardiovascular computed tomography (CT) is among the most active fields with ongoing technical innovation related to image acquisition and analysis. Artificial intelligence can be incorporated into various clinical applications of cardiovascular CT, ...

OBJECTIVE: For the revascularization in small vessels such as coronary arteries, we present a guide-wired helical microrobot mimicking the corkscrew motion for mechanical atherectomy that enables autonomous therapeutics and minimizing the radiation e...
PURPOSE: To develop and evaluate a novel and generalizable super-resolution (SR) deep-learning framework for motion-compensated isotropic 3D coronary MR angiography (CMRA), which allows free-breathing acquisitions in less than a minute.
AIMS: The aim of this study is to develop and validate a deep learning (DL) methodology capable of automated and accurate segmentation of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) image sequences in real-time.

BACKGROUND: HeartLander is a tethered robot walker that utilizes suction to adhere to the beating heart. HeartLander can be used for minimally invasive administration of cardiac medications or ablation of tissue. In order to administer injections saf...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: We developed a deep learning (DL) model for automated atherosclerotic plaque categorization using optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI) and performed quantitative and visual evaluations.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate an algorithm that can automatically estimate the amount of coronary artery calcium (CAC) from unenhanced electrocardiography (ECG)-gated computed tomography (CT) cardiac volume acquisitio...
PURPOSE: During a typical cardiac short scan, the heart can move several millimeters. As a result, the corresponding CT reconstructions may be corrupted by motion artifacts. Especially the assessment of small structures, such as the coronary arteries...
