Automated Measurement of Vascular Calcification in Femoral Endarterectomy Patients Using Deep Learning [PDF]
Diagnostics 2023, 13, 3363, 2023 Atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the large arteries, presents a global health risk. Accurate analysis of diagnostic images, like computed tomographic angiograms (CTAs), is essential for staging and monitoring the progression of atherosclerosis-related conditions, including peripheral arterial disease (PAD).

Adjusting for bias introduced by instrumental variable estimation in the Cox Proportional Hazards Model [PDF]
Biostatistics, 2017, 2017 Instrumental variable (IV) methods are widely used for estimating average treatment effects in the presence of unmeasured confounders. However, the capability of existing IV procedures, and most notably the two-stage residual inclusion (2SRI) procedure recommended for use in nonlinear contexts, to account for unmeasured confounders in the Cox ...

Area-preserving mapping of 3D ultrasound carotid artery images using density-equalizing reference map [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 67(9), 1507-1517
(2020), 2018 Carotid atherosclerosis is a focal disease at the bifurcations of the carotid artery. To quantitatively monitor the local changes in the vessel-wall-plus-plaque thickness (VWT) and compare the VWT distributions for different patients or for the same patients at different ultrasound scanning sessions, a mapping technique is required to adjust for the ...
