Coronary luminal dimensions change during the cardiac cycle. However, contemporary volumetric intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) analysis is performed in non-gated images as existing methods to acquire gated or to retrospectively gate IVUS images have f...
In the clinical analysis of Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) images, the lumen size is an important indicator of coronary atherosclerosis, and is also the premise of coronary artery disease diagnosis and interventional treatment. In this study, a full...

Plaque vulnerability prediction is of great importance in cardiovascular research. In vivo follow-up intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) coronary plaque data were acquired from nine patients to construct fluid-structure interaction models to obtain plaqu...
PURPOSE: High-Dose-Rate (HDR) brachytherapy is one of the most effective ways to treat the prostate cancer, which is the second most common cancer in men worldwide. This treatment delivers highly conformal dose through the transperineal needle implan...
AIM: Continuous real-time echocardiographic monitoring is essential for guidance during ASD closure. However, transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) can only be implemented intermittently during fluoroscopy. We evaluate a novel approach to provide real...
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This paper investigates present uses and future potential of artificial intelligence (AI) applied to intracoronary imaging technologies.
