Machine Learning and Coronary Artery Calcium Scoring

Current Cardiology Reports, 2020
To summarize current artificial intelligence (AI)-based applications for coronary artery calcium scoring (CACS) and their potential clinical impact.Recent evolution of AI-based technologies in medical imaging has accelerated progress in CACS performed in diverse types of CT examinations, providing promising results for future clinical application in ...

Influence of BMI on virtual coronary artery calcium scoring

The International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging, 2022
Virtual non-contrast (VNC) coronary artery calcium scoring (CAC) may obviate the need for traditional non-contrast (TNC) CAC. There is no data on the influence of body mass index (BMI) on VNC reliability. We aimed to evaluate the influence of BMI on VNC CAC agreement with TNC.All patients who underwent sequential CAC and coronary CT angiography (CCTA ...

Coronary Artery Calcium Score: the “Mammogram” of the Heart?

Current Cardiology Reports, 2018
To discuss the classic analogy of "coronary artery calcium (CAC) as a mammogram of the heart", by evaluating the conceptual strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of a potential cardiovascular disease (CVD) screening strategy using CAC in apparently healthy adults.CAC is typically used for further CVD risk assessment.

Epidemiologic guidance with coronary artery calcium scoring

Current Cardiology Reports, 2008
The importance of screening for subclinical coronary artery disease is reinforced by the detection gap existing between the currently used risk stratification tools and the persistently elevated rates of cardiovascular disease in Western countries. Medicare data clearly indicate the extremely high cost of caring for patients with end-stage diseases ...

Elevated Coronary Artery Calcium Scores in Astronauts

Aerospace Medicine and Human Performance
INTRODUCTION: We previously published a model of how calcium from resorbing bone can enter and persist in the circulation with consequent precipitation in coronary arteries. The model was based on chronic inflammation as the source of continued bone resorption.
