Deep learning-driven pulmonary artery and vein segmentation reveals demography-associated vasculature anatomical differences.

Nature communications
Pulmonary artery-vein segmentation is critical for disease diagnosis and surgical planning. Traditional methods rely on Computed Tomography Pulmonary Angiography (CTPA), which requires contrast agents with potential health risks. Non-contrast CT, a s...

Constitutive neural networks for main pulmonary arteries: discovering the undiscovered.

Biomechanics and modeling in mechanobiology
Accurate modeling of cardiovascular tissues is crucial for understanding and predicting their behavior in various physiological and pathological conditions. In this study, we specifically focus on the pulmonary artery in the context of the Ross proce...

Development and Evaluation of a Deep Learning-Based Pulmonary Hypertension Screening Algorithm Using a Digital Stethoscope.

Journal of the American Heart Association
BACKGROUND: Despite the poor outcomes related to the presence of pulmonary hypertension, it often goes undiagnosed in part because of low suspicion and screening tools not being easily accessible such as echocardiography. A new readily available scre...

Multi-Energy Evaluation of Image Quality in Spectral CT Pulmonary Angiography Using Different Strength Deep Learning Spectral Reconstructions.

Academic radiology
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To evaluate and compare image quality of different energy levels of virtual monochromatic images (VMIs) using standard versus strong deep learning spectral reconstruction (DLSR) on dual-energy CT pulmonary angiogram (DECT-PA...

Identification of an immune-related gene panel for the diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension using bioinformatics and machine learning.

International immunopharmacology
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to screen an immune-related gene (IRG) panel and develop a novel approach for diagnosing pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) utilizing bioinformatics and machine learning (ML).

Application of a Deep Learning-Based Contrast-Boosting Algorithm to Low-Dose Computed Tomography Pulmonary Angiography With Reduced Iodine Load.

Journal of computer assisted tomography
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of a deep learning-based image contrast-boosting algorithm by enhancing the image quality of low-dose computed tomography pulmonary angiography at reduced iodine load.

Improved detection of small pulmonary embolism on unenhanced computed tomography using an artificial intelligence-based algorithm - a single centre retrospective study.

The international journal of cardiovascular imaging
To preliminarily verify the feasibility of a deep-learning (DL) artificial intelligence (AI) model to localize pulmonary embolism (PE) on unenhanced chest-CT by comparison with pulmonary artery (PA) CT angiography (CTA). In a monocentric study, we re...

Hierarchical Hybrid Networks for Automatic Pulmonary Blood Vessel Segmentation in Computed Tomography Images.

IEEE/ACM transactions on computational biology and bioinformatics
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is considered the third most common cardiovascular disease after coronary heart disease and hypertension. The diagnosis of PAH is mainly based on the comprehensive judgment of computed tomography and other medica...

A Coarse-Fine Collaborative Learning Model for Three Vessel Segmentation in Fetal Cardiac Ultrasound Images.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most frequent birth defect and a leading cause of infant mortality, emphasizing the crucial need for its early diagnosis. Ultrasound is the primary imaging modality for prenatal CHD screening. As a complement to ...

Image2Flow: A proof-of-concept hybrid image and graph convolutional neural network for rapid patient-specific pulmonary artery segmentation and CFD flow field calculation from 3D cardiac MRI data.

PLoS computational biology
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) can be used for non-invasive evaluation of hemodynamics. However, its routine use is limited by labor-intensive manual segmentation, CFD mesh creation, and time-consuming simulation. This study aims to train a deep ...
