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...

Sex-specific prognostic value of automated epicardial adipose tissue quantification on serial lung cancer screening chest computed tomography.

European heart journal. Cardiovascular Imaging
AIMS: Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a metabolically active fat depot associated with coronary atherosclerosis and cardiovascular (CV) risk. While EAT is a known prognostic marker in lung cancer screening, its sex-specific prognostic value remain...
