Computed tomography angiography (CTA) collateral scoring can identify patients most likely to benefit from mechanical thrombectomy and those more likely to have good outcomes and ranges from 0 (no collaterals) to 3 (complete collaterals). In this stu...
BACKGROUND: Outcome prediction for patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) has the possibility to detect patients who could have been potentially saved. Advanced machine learning techniques have recently been developed and employed for cl...
The use of artificial intelligence in medicine is currently an issue of great interest, especially with regard to the diagnostic or predictive analysis of medical data. In order to achieve the regional medical and public health data analysis through ...

PURPOSE: Acuity-VEP approaches basically all use the information obtained across a number of check sizes (or spatial frequencies) to derive a measure of acuity. Amplitude is always used, sometimes combined with phase or a noise measure. In our approa...
PURPOSE: Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a common form of cardiomyopathy and it is associated with poor outcomes. A poor prognosis of DCM patients with low ejection fraction has been noted in the short-term follow-up. Machine learning (ML) could aid ...
BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that impacts an increasing percentage of people each year. Among its comorbidities, diabetics are two to four times more likely to develop cardiovascular diseases. While HbA1c remains the primary dia...
