In carotid arteries, plaque can develop as localized elevated lesions. The Jellyfish sign, marked by fluctuating plaque surfaces with blood flow pulsation, is a dynamic characteristic of these plaques that has recently attracted attention. Detecting ...
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...
OBJECTIVES: This study expolored the relationship between perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) radiomic features derived from coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and the presence of coronary artery plaques. It aimed to determine whether PVA...
BACKGROUND: Carotid atherosclerotic plaque is the primary cause of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. It is closely related to oxidative stress and immune inflammation. This bioinformatic study was conducted to identify key oxidative stress...
Vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque is a type of plaque that poses a significant risk of high mortality in patients with cardiovascular disease. Ultrasound has long been used for carotid atherosclerosis screening and plaque assessment due to its safety...
Carotid plaques-the buildup of cholesterol, calcium, cellular debris, and fibrous tissues in carotid arteries-can rupture, release microemboli into the cerebral vasculature and cause strokes. The likelihood of a plaque rupturing is thought to be asso...
PURPOSE: Utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) technology for the segmentation of plaques on ultrasound images to evaluate the stability of carotid artery plaques and analyze its diagnostic accuracy in differentiating vulnerable plaques from stable ...
BACKGROUND: We aimed to develop and validate an Artificial Intelligence (AI) model that leverages CCTA and optical coherence tomography (OCT) images for automated analysis of plaque characteristics and coronary function.
This study aims to develop a deep learning model using high-resolution vessel wall imaging (HR-VWI) to differentiate symptom-related intracranial and extracranial plaques, which is crucial for stroke treatment and prevention. We retrospectively analy...
BACKGROUND: Coronary artery plaque rupture (PR) is closely associated with immune-inflammatory responses. The systemic inflammatory index (SII) and the systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) have shown potential in predicting the occurrence of P...
