Coronary artery disease poses a significant global health challenge, often necessitating percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent implantation. Assessing stent apposition holds pivotal importance in averting and identifying PCI…
Alterations in the geometry and function of the heart define well-established causes of cardiovascular disease. However, current approaches to the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases often rely on subjective human assessment as well as…
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the most common causes of death in the European Union and the USA. The crucial biomarker in its diagnosis is called Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) and its in-vivo measurement is obtained via an…
The three-dimensional vascular model reconstructed from CT images is widely used in medical diagnosis. At different phases, the beating of the heart can cause deformation of vessels, resulting in different vascular imaging states and false…
Coronary artery disease (CAD) stands as the leading cause of death worldwide, and invasive coronary angiography (ICA) remains the gold standard for assessing vascular anatomical information. However, deep learning-based methods encounter…
Cardiovascular disease is the leading global cause of mortality, with coronary artery disease (CAD) as its most prevalent form, necessitating early risk prediction. While 3D coronary artery digital twins reconstructed from imaging offer…
Background: Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA) is crucial for cerebrovascular disease diagnosis. Dynamic CTA is a type of imaging that captures temporal information about the We aim to develop and evaluate two segmentation techniques to…
Automatic blood vessel extraction from 3D medical images is crucial for vascular disease diagnoses. Existing methods based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) may suffer from discontinuities of extracted vessels when segmenting such…
Background and Purpose: Our purpose was to develop a deep learning angiography (DLA) method to generate 3D cerebral angiograms from a single contrast-enhanced acquisition. Material and Methods: Under an approved IRB protocol 105 3D-DSA…
Coronary heart disease (CHD) remains a top reason of mortality worldwide. This study introduces a novel approach by integrating patient-specific Multi-slice CT scans into CAD models and employing a one-dimensional numerical framework to…
Accurate segmentation of heart structures imaged by cardiac MR is key for the quantitative analysis of pathology. High-resolution 3D MR sequences enable whole-heart structural imaging but are time-consuming, expensive to acquire and they…
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) requires reconstructing a real-time video of a beating heart from continuous highly under-sampled measurements. This task is challenging since the object to be reconstructed (the heart) is…
Chest computed tomography (CT) imaging adds valuable insight in the diagnosis and management of pulmonary infectious diseases, like tuberculosis (TB). However, due to the cost and resource limitations, only X-ray images may be available for…
Automated construction of surface geometries of cardiac structures from volumetric medical images is important for a number of clinical applications. While deep-learning-based approaches have demonstrated promising reconstruction precision,…
Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) diagnostic to be a major global cause of death, necessitating innovative solutions. Addressing the critical importance of early CAD detection and its impact on the mortality rate, we propose the potential of…
Three-dimensional coronary magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA) demands reconstruction algorithms that can significantly suppress the artifacts from a heavily undersampled acquisition. While unrolling-based deep reconstruction methods have…
Joint 2D cardiac segmentation and 3D volume reconstruction are fundamental to building statistical cardiac anatomy models and understanding functional mechanisms from motion patterns. However, due to the low through-plane resolution of cine…
Purpose: To rapidly reconstruct undersampled 3D non-Cartesian image-based navigators (iNAVs) using an unrolled deep learning (DL) model for non-rigid motion correction in coronary magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA). Methods: An unrolled…
The evaluation of obstructions (stenosis) in coronary arteries is currently done by a physician's visual assessment of coronary angiography video sequences. It is laborious, and can be susceptible to interobserver variation. Prior studies…
Assessing coronary artery plaque segments in coronary CT angiography scans is an important task to improve patient management and clinical outcomes, as it can help to decide whether invasive investigation and treatment are necessary. In…
