Automatic calcium scoring in low-dose chest CT using deep neural networks with dilated convolutions

open access: yes, 2018
Heavy smokers undergoing screening with low-dose chest CT are affected by cardiovascular disease as much as by lung cancer. Low-dose chest CT scans acquired in screening enable quantification of atherosclerotic calcifications and thus enable ...

Automated quantification and evaluation of motion artifact on coronary CT angiography images [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Purpose This study developed and validated a Motion Artifact Quantification algorithm to automatically quantify the severity of motion artifacts on coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) images. The algorithm was then used to develop a Motion IQ

Coronary Artery Centerline Extraction in Cardiac CT Angiography Using a CNN-Based Orientation Classifier

open access: yes, 2018
Coronary artery centerline extraction in cardiac CT angiography (CCTA) images is a prerequisite for evaluation of stenoses and atherosclerotic plaque. We propose an algorithm that extracts coronary artery centerlines in CCTA using a convolutional neural ...
