Background Coronary physiology measurement in serial coronary lesions with multiple stenoses is challenging. Therefore, we evaluated the feasibility of Murray fractal law‐based quantitative flow ratio (μQFR) virtual stenting for guidance of serial ...

Coronary Artery Segmentation in Angiographic Videos Using A 3D-2D CE-Net [PDF]
Coronary angiography is an indispensable assistive technique for cardiac interventional surgery. Segmentation and extraction of blood vessels from coronary angiography videos are very essential prerequisites for physicians to locate, assess and diagnose the plaques and stenosis in blood vessels.

Automated Deep Learning Analysis of Angiography Video Sequences for Coronary Artery Disease [PDF]
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 have attempted to automate this process, but few have demonstrated an integrated suite of algorithms for the end-to-

Evaluation of Motion Artifact Metrics for Coronary CT Angiography [PDF]
Purpose This study quantified the performance of coronary artery motion artifact metrics relative to human observer ratings. Motion artifact metrics have been used as part of motion correction and best‐phase selection algorithms for Coronary Computed ...

NeCA: 3D Coronary Artery Tree Reconstruction from Two 2D Projections via Neural Implicit Representation [PDF]
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the most common health threats worldwide. 2D X-ray invasive coronary angiography (ICA) remains the most widely adopted imaging modality for CVD assessment during real-time cardiac interventions. However, it is often difficult for cardiologists to interpret the 3D geometry of coronary vessels based on 2D planes ...

Two New Stenosis Detection Methods of Coronary Angiograms [PDF]
Coronary angiography is the "gold standard" for diagnosing coronary artery disease (CAD). At present, the methods for detecting and evaluating coronary artery stenosis cannot satisfy the clinical needs, e.g., there is no prior study of detecting stenoses in prespecified vessel segments, which is necessary in clinical practice.

Impact of competitive flow on wall shear stress in coronary surgery: computational fluid dynamics of a LIMA-LAD model [PDF]
Competitive flow from native coronary vessels is considered a major factor in the failure of coronary bypass grafts. However, the pathophysiological effects are not fully understood.
