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-

A Rare Case of Multivessel SCAD Successfully Treated with Conservative Medical Management
A female patient presented with severe, symptomatic multivessel spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) with no known medical history or risk factors. The affected vessels were left anterior descending artery (LAD), right coronary artery (RCA), and

Interaction between anandamide and sphingosine-1-phosphate in mediating vasorelaxation in rat coronary artery [PDF]
<b>BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE</b> Anandamide and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) both regulate vascular tone in a variety of vessels. This study aimed to examine the mechanisms involved in the regulation of coronary vascular tone by anandamide and ...

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.

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.

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 ...
