Automated diagnosis of atherosclerosis using multi-layer ensemble models and bio-inspired optimization in intravascular ultrasound imaging.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
Atherosclerosis causes heart disease by forming plaques in arterial walls. IVUS imaging provides a high-resolution cross-sectional view of coronary arteries and plaque morphology. Healthcare professionals diagnose and quantify atherosclerosis physica...

Long-term Major Adverse Cardiac Event Prediction by Computed Tomography-derived Plaque Measures and Clinical Parameters Using Machine Learning.

Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan)
Objective The present study evaluated the usefulness of machine learning (ML) models with the coronary computed tomography imaging and clinical parameters for predicting major adverse cardiac events (MACEs). Methods The Nationwide Gender-specific Ath...

Deep learning model for intravascular ultrasound image segmentation with temporal consistency.

The international journal of cardiovascular imaging
This study was conducted to develop and validate a deep learning model for delineating intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) images of coronary arteries.Using a total of 1240 40-MHz IVUS pullbacks with 191,407 frames, the model for lumen and external elast...

An Unsupervised Learning Tool for Plaque Tissue Characterization in Histopathological Images.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Stroke is the second leading cause of death and a major cause of disability around the world, and the development of atherosclerotic plaques in the carotid arteries is generally considered the leading cause of severe cerebrovascular events. In recent...

Deep learning improves quality of intracranial vessel wall MRI for better characterization of potentially culprit plaques.

Scientific reports
Intracranial vessel wall imaging (VWI), which requires both high spatial resolution and high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), is an ideal candidate for deep learning (DL)-based image quality improvement. Conventional VWI (Conv-VWI, voxel size 0.51 × 0.51...

Mechanisms of QingRe HuoXue Formula in atherosclerosis Treatment: An integrated approach using Bioinformatics, Machine Learning, and experimental validation.

International immunopharmacology
BACKGROUND: Atherosclerosis (AS) is the main cause of coronary heart disease, cerebral infarction, and peripheral vascular disease. QingRe HuoXue Formula (QRHXF), a common prescription of traditional Chinese medicine, has a definite effect on the cli...

Derivation and external validation of mass spectrometry-based proteomic model using machine learning algorithms to predict plaque rupture in patients with acute coronary syndrome.

Clinica chimica acta; international journal of clinical chemistry
BACKGROUND: A poor prognosis is associated with atherosclerotic plaque rupture (PR) despite after conventional therapy for patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Timely identification of PR improves the risk stratification and prognosis of ACS ...

Development of machine learning models for fractional flow reserve prediction in angiographically intermediate coronary lesions.

Catheterization and cardiovascular interventions : official journal of the Society for Cardiac Angiography & Interventions
BACKGROUND: Fractional flow reserve (FFR) represents the gold standard in guiding the decision to proceed or not with coronary revascularization of angiographically intermediate coronary lesion (AICL). Optical coherence tomography (OCT) allows to car...

Machine Learning Detects Symptomatic Plaques in Patients With Carotid Atherosclerosis on CT Angiography.

Circulation. Cardiovascular imaging
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to develop and validate a computed tomography angiography based machine learning model that uses plaque composition data and degree of carotid stenosis to detect symptomatic carotid plaques in patients with carotid athero...
