BACKGROUND: Plaque quantification from coronary computed tomography angiography has emerged as a valuable predictor of cardiovascular risk. Deep learning can provide automated quantification of coronary plaque from computed tomography angiography. We...
Wall Shear Stress (WSS) is one of the most important parameters used in cardiovascular fluid mechanics, and it provides a lot of information like the risk level caused by any vascular occlusion. Since WSS cannot be measured directly and other availab...
BACKGROUND: Quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) typically employs traditional edge detection algorithms that often require manual correction. This has important implications for the accuracy of downstream 3D coronary reconstructions and computed ...
In order to evaluate the relationship between coronary heart disease (CHD) and fractional flow reservation (FFR) in patients with different levels of CHD and diabetes, this paper used AI (artificial intelligence) post-processing technology to detect ...

Atherosclerosis causes heart disease by forming plaques in arterial walls. IVUS imaging provides a high-resolution cross-sectional view of coronary arteries and plaque morphology. Healthcare professionals diagnose and quantify atherosclerosis physica...
Prognostic markers for long-term outcomes are lacking in patients with deferred (nonculprit) coronary artery lesions. This study aimed to identify the morphological criteria for predicting adverse outcomes and validate their clinical impact. Using de...
BACKGROUND: Anomalous origin of coronary artery is a common coronary artery anatomy anomaly. The anomalous origin of the coronary artery may lead to problems such as narrowing of the coronary arteries at the beginning of the coronary arteries and abn...

This study was conducted to develop and validate a deep learning model for delineating intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) images of coronary arteries.Using a total of 1240 40-MHz IVUS pullbacks with 191,407 frames, the model for lumen and external elast...
The importance of 3D reconstruction of coronary arteries using multiple coronary angiography (CAG) images has been increasingly recognized in the field of cardiovascular disease management. This process relies on the camera matrix's optimization, nee...
