Epicardial adipose tissue and myocardial ischemia assessed by computed tomography perfusion imaging and invasive fractional flow reserve.

Journal of cardiovascular computed tomography
BACKGROUND: Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a metabolically active fat depot that is associated with incident coronary artery disease (CAD) and major adverse cardiovascular events. The relationship between EAT and myocardial ischemia remains uncle...

An artificial neural network method for lumen and media-adventitia border detection in IVUS.

Computerized medical imaging and graphics : the official journal of the Computerized Medical Imaging Society
Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) has been well recognized as one powerful imaging technique to evaluate the stenosis inside the coronary arteries. The detection of lumen border and media-adventitia (MA) border in IVUS images is the key procedure to de...

Fast Computation of Hemodynamic Sensitivity to Lumen Segmentation Uncertainty.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Patient-specific blood flow modeling combining imaging data and computational fluid dynamics can aid in the assessment of coronary artery disease. Accurate coronary segmentation and realistic physiologic modeling of boundary conditions are important ...

Impact of Deep Learning-Based Image Conversion on Fully Automated Coronary Artery Calcium Scoring Using Thin-Slice, Sharp-Kernel, Non-Gated, Low-Dose Chest CT Scans: A Multi-Center Study.

Korean journal of radiology
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of deep learning-based image conversion on the accuracy of automated coronary artery calcium quantification using thin-slice, sharp-kernel, non-gated, low-dose chest computed tomography (LDCT) images collected from m...

Deep learning techniques for automated coronary artery segmentation and coronary artery disease detection: A systematic review of the last decade (2013-2024).

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common cardiovascular disease, exacting high morbidity and mortality worldwide. CAD is detected on coronary artery imaging; coronary artery segmentation (CAS) of the images is essential for corona...

Computed Tomography Advancements in Plaque Analysis: From Histology to Comprehensive Plaque Burden Assessment.

Echocardiography (Mount Kisco, N.Y.)
Advancements in coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) facilitated the transition from traditional histological approaches to comprehensive plaque burden assessment. Recent updates in the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines empha...

Bi-VesTreeFormer: A bidirectional topology-aware transformer framework for coronary vFFR estimation.

Computerized medical imaging and graphics : the official journal of the Computerized Medical Imaging Society
Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) serves as the gold standard for evaluating the functional significance of coronary artery stenosis. However, traditional FFR involves the injection of vasodilator drugs and the utilization of additional guidewires, which...

A multi-model deep learning approach for the identification of coronary artery calcifications within 2D coronary angiography images.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Identifying and quantifying coronary artery calcification (CAC) is crucial for preoperative planning, as it helps to estimate both the complexity of the 2D coronary angiography (2DCA) procedure and the risk of developing intraoperative compl...

GVM-Net: A GNN-Based Vessel Matching Network for 2D/3D Non-Rigid Coronary Artery Registration.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
The registration of coronary artery structures from preoperative coronary computed tomography angiography to intraoperative coronary angiography is of great interest to improve guidance in percutaneous coronary interventions. However, non-rigid defor...
