Detecting the left atrial appendage in CT localizers using deep learning.

Scientific reports
Patients with cardioembolic stroke often undergo CT of the left atrial appendage (LAA), for example, to determine whether thrombi are present in the LAA. To guide the imaging process, technologists first perform a localizer scan, which is a prelimina...

Using clinical data to reclassify ESUS patients to large artery atherosclerotic or cardioembolic stroke mechanisms.

Journal of neurology
PURPOSE: Embolic stroke of unidentified source (ESUS) represents 10-25% of all ischemic strokes. Our goal was to determine whether ESUS could be reclassified to cardioembolic (CE) or large-artery atherosclerosis (LAA) with machine learning (ML) using...

Artificial intelligence predicts undiagnosed atrial fibrillation in patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source using sinus rhythm electrocardiograms.

Heart rhythm
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled sinus rhythm (SR) electrocardiogram (ECG) interpretation can aid in identifying undiagnosed paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS).

Artificial Inteligence-Based Decision for the Prediction of Cardioembolism in Patients with Chagas Disease and Ischemic Stroke.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
BACKGROUND: Chagas disease (CD) and ischemic stroke (IS) have a close, but poorly understood, association. There is paucity of evidence on the ideal secondary prophylaxis and etiological determination, with few cardioembolic patients being identified...

Artificial Intelligence-Enabled ECG to Identify Silent Atrial Fibrillation in Embolic Stroke of Unknown Source.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
OBJECTIVES: Embolic strokes of unknown source (ESUS) are common and often suspected to be caused by unrecognized paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF). An AI-enabled ECG (AI-ECG) during sinus rhythm has been shown to identify patients with unrecognized...

Embolic Ischemic Cortical Stroke in a Young Flight Instructor with a Small Patent Foramen Ovale.

Aerospace medicine and human performance
BACKGROUND: Stroke in young patients is frequently associated with a patent foramen ovale (PFO). Controversy exists over whether the PFO is a cause, a risk factor, or an incidental finding. Estimating the individualized risk of stroke recurrence has ...
