CCTA-Derived coronary plaque burden offers enhanced prognostic value over CAC scoring in suspected CAD patients.

European heart journal. Cardiovascular Imaging
AIMS: To assess the prognostic utility of coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring and coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA)-derived quantitative plaque metrics for predicting adverse cardiovascular outcomes.

Balancing accuracy and cost in machine learning models for detecting medial vascular calcification in chronic kidney disease: a pilot study.

Scientific reports
Machine learning algorithms that integrate multiple biomarkers are increasingly used in disease detection, yet economic considerations are often overlooked. Medial vascular calcification (mVC), a pathology associated with elevated cardiovascular risk...

Detection of carotid artery calcifications using artificial intelligence in dental radiographs: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

BMC medical imaging
BACKGROUND: Carotid artery calcifications are important markers of cardiovascular health, often associated with atherosclerosis and a higher risk of stroke. Recent research shows that dental radiographs can help identify these calcifications, allowin...

Breast Arterial Calcifications on Mammography: A Review of the Literature.

Journal of breast imaging
Identifying systemic disease with medical imaging studies may improve population health outcomes. Although the pathogenesis of peripheral arterial calcification and coronary artery calcification differ, breast arterial calcification (BAC) on mammogra...

Automated proximal coronary artery calcium identification using artificial intelligence: advancing cardiovascular risk assessment.

European heart journal. Cardiovascular Imaging
AIMS: Identification of proximal coronary artery calcium (CAC) may improve prediction of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) beyond the CAC score, particularly in patients with low CAC burden. We investigated whether the proximal CAC can be detected ...

Automated vessel-specific coronary artery calcification quantification with deep learning in a large multi-centre registry.

European heart journal. Cardiovascular Imaging
AIMS: Vessel-specific coronary artery calcification (CAC) is additive to global CAC for prognostic assessment. We assessed accuracy and prognostic implications of vessel-specific automated deep learning (DL) CAC analysis on electrocardiogram (ECG) ga...

Accuracy of a deep learning-based algorithm for the detection of thoracic aortic calcifications in chest computed tomography and cardiovascular surgery planning.

European journal of cardio-thoracic surgery : official journal of the European Association for Cardio-thoracic Surgery
OBJECTIVES: To assess the accuracy of a deep learning-based algorithm for fully automated detection of thoracic aortic calcifications in chest computed tomography (CT) with a focus on the aortic clamping zone.
