Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been proposed to improve workflow for coronary artery calcium scoring (CACS), but simultaneous demonstration of improved efficiency, accuracy, and clinical stability have not been demonstrated. 148 sequential patients...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between systemic sclerosis (SSc) clinical features and the extent and progression of coronary artery calcifications.
This study, for the first time, explores the integration of data science and machine learning for the classification and prediction of coronary artery calcium (CAC) scores. It focuses on tooth loss and patient characteristics as key input features to...

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate an artificial intelligence (AI) software that automatically detects and quantifies breast arterial calcifications (BAC).
OBJECTIVES: Panoramic radiographs (PRs) can reveal an incidental finding of atherosclerosis, or carotid artery calcification (CAC), in 3-15% of examined patients. However, limited training in identification of such calcifications among dental profess...
INTRODUCTION: Manual Coronary Artery Calcium (CAC) scoring, crucial for assessing coronary artery disease risk, is time-consuming and variable. Deep learning, particularly through Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), promises to automate and enhance...
OBJECTIVES: Evaluation of the correlation and agreement between AI and semi-automatic evaluations of calcium scoring CT (CSCT) examinations using extensive data from the Swedish CardioPulmonary bio-Image study (SCAPIS).

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study to compare of the image quality of calcified lesions in coronary artery disease between deep learning reconstruction (DLR) and model-based iterative reconstruction (MBIR) on energy-integrating detector (EID) based ul...
OBJECTIVE: To explore the potential of the deep learning reconstruction (DLR) for ultralow dose calcium scoring CT (CSCT) with simultaneously reduced tube voltage and current.
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study (EPIDIAB) was to assess the relationship between epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and the micro and macrovascular complications (MVC) of type 2 diabetes (T2D).
