Machine learning-based coronary artery calcium score predicted from clinical variables as a prognostic indicator in patients referred for invasive coronary angiography.

European radiology
OBJECTIVES: Utilising readily available clinical variables, we aimed to develop and validate a novel machine learning (ML) model to predict severe coronary calcification, and further assessed its prognostic significance.

Deep learning-based prediction of coronary artery calcium scoring in hemodialysis patients using radial artery calcification.

Seminars in dialysis
OBJECTIVE: This study used random forest model to explore the feasibility of radial artery calcification in prediction of coronary artery calcification in hemodialysis patients.

CT analysis of aortic calcifications to predict abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture.

European radiology
BACKGROUND: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture prediction based on sex and diameter could be improved. The goal was to assess whether aortic calcification distribution could better predict AAA rupture through machine learning and LASSO regressio...

Feasibility and limitations of deep learning-based coronary calcium scoring in PET-CT: a comparison with coronary calcium score CT.

European radiology
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to determine the feasibility and limitations of deep learning-based coronary calcium scoring using positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) in comparison with coronary calcium scoring using ECG-gated non-c...

Can convolutional neural networks identify external carotid artery calcifications?

Oral surgery, oral medicine, oral pathology and oral radiology
OBJECTIVE: We developed and evaluated the accuracy and reliability of a convolutional neural network (CNN) in detecting external carotid artery calcifications (ECACs) in cone beam computed tomography scans.

Prediction of Coronary Artery Calcium Using Deep Learning of Echocardiograms.

Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography : official publication of the American Society of Echocardiography
BACKGROUND: Coronary artery calcification (CAC), often assessed by computed tomography (CT), is a powerful marker of coronary artery disease that can guide preventive therapies. Computed tomographies, however, are not always accessible or serially ob...

Deep Learning-Assisted Repurposing of Plant Compounds for Treating Vascular Calcification: An In Silico Study with Experimental Validation.

Oxidative medicine and cellular longevity
BACKGROUND: Vascular calcification (VC) constitutes subclinical vascular burden and increases cardiovascular mortality. Effective therapeutics for VC remains to be procured. We aimed to use a deep learning-based strategy to screen and uncover plant c...

Calcium Scoring at Coronary CT Angiography Using Deep Learning.

Radiology
Background Separate noncontrast CT to quantify the coronary artery calcium (CAC) score often precedes coronary CT angiography (CTA). Quantifying CAC scores directly at CTA would eliminate the additional radiation produced at CT but remains challengin...

A Self-Representation-Based Fuzzy SVM Model for Predicting Vascular Calcification of Hemodialysis Patients.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
In end-stage renal disease (ESRD), vascular calcification risk factors are essential for the survival of hemodialysis patients. To effectively assess the level of vascular calcification, the machine learning algorithm can be used to predict the vascu...
