Epicardial adipose tissue, myocardial remodelling and adverse outcomes in asymptomatic aortic stenosis: a post hoc analysis of a randomised controlled trial.

Heart (British Cardiac Society)
BACKGROUND: Epicardial adipose tissue represents a metabolically active visceral fat depot that is in direct contact with the left ventricular myocardium. While it is associated with coronary artery disease, little is known regarding its role in aort...

Impact of CT reconstruction algorithms on pericoronary and epicardial adipose tissue attenuation.

European journal of radiology
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to investigate the impact of adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction-Veo (ASIR-V) and deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) algorithms on the quantification of pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) and epicardial adi...

Radiomics and deep learning features of pericoronary adipose tissue on non-contrast computerized tomography for predicting non-calcified plaques.

Journal of X-ray science and technology
BACKGROUND: Inflammation of coronary arterial plaque is considered a key factor in the development of coronary heart disease. Early the plaque detection and timely treatment of the atherosclerosis could effectively reduce the risk of cardiovascular e...

Effect of Deep Learning Image Reconstruction on Image Quality and Pericoronary Fat Attenuation Index.

Journal of imaging informatics in medicine
To compare the image quality and fat attenuation index (FAI) of coronary artery CT angiography (CCTA) under different tube voltages between deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) and adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction V (ASIR-V). Three ...

Deep learning-based workflow for automatic extraction of atria and epicardial adipose tissue on cardiac computed tomography in atrial fibrillation.

Journal of the Chinese Medical Association : JCMA
BACKGROUND: Preoperative estimation of the volume of the left atrium (LA) and epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) on computed tomography (CT) images is associated with an increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence. We aimed to design a deep le...
