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...

Automatic Deep Learning Segmentation and Quantification of Epicardial Adipose Tissue in Non-Contrast Cardiac CT scans.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
An Automatic deep learning semantic segmentation (ADLS) using DeepLab-v3-plus technique is proposed for a full and accurate whole heart Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) segmentation from non-contrast cardiac CT scan. The ADLS algorithm was trained on ...

On the Automated Segmentation of Epicardial and Mediastinal Cardiac Adipose Tissues Using Classification Algorithms.

Studies in health technology and informatics
The quantification of fat depots on the surroundings of the heart is an accurate procedure for evaluating health risk factors correlated with several diseases. However, this type of evaluation is not widely employed in clinical practice due to the re...
