Separating Thickness from Geometric Thickness [PDF]
We show that graph-theoretic thickness and geometric thickness are not asymptotically equivalent: for every t, there exists a graph with thickness three and geometric thickness >= t.

Measure Anatomical Thickness from Cardiac MRI with Deep Neural Networks [PDF]
Accurate estimation of shape thickness from medical images is crucial in clinical applications. For example, the thickness of myocardium is one of the key to cardiac disease diagnosis. While mathematical models are available to obtain accurate dense thickness estimation, they suffer from heavy computational overhead due to iterative solvers.

Thickness and a gap lemma in $\mathbb{R}^d$ [PDF]
We give a definition of thickness in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that is useful even for totally disconnected sets, and prove a Gap Lemma type result. We also guarantee an interval of distances in any direction in thick compact sets, relate thick sets (for this definition of thickness) with winning sets, give a lower bound for the Hausdorff dimension of the ...

Background Carotid intima–media thickness (cIMT) is a noninvasive marker of cardiovascular risk. The cIMT may be increased in patients with harmonisation, but little is known regarding the functional form of the association between blood pressure (BP ...

DETERMINANTS OF INTIMA-MEDIA THICKNESS IN INCIDENT HYPERTENSION
Objective:Recent guidelines have removed measurement of intima-media thickness (IMT) from the list of subclinical target organ damage for the management of hypertension (HTN). Most of the evidence used for this decision was derived from studies performed with techniques based on pixel-resolution ...

Objective Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death in individuals with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We assessed atherosclerotic plaque progression and incident cardiovascular events in patients with SLE over a 10‐year follow‐up.

Small eigenvalues and thick-thin decomposition in negative curvature [PDF]
Let $M$ be a finite volume oriented Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ and curvature in $[-b^2,-1]$, with thick-thin decomposition $M=M(thick)\cup M(thin)$. Denote by $\lambda_k(M(thick))$ the k-th eigenvalue for the Laplacian on $M(thick)$, with Neumann boundary conditdions.

Enhanced Drug Effect With Cutting Balloon Followed by Drug Coated Balloon in a Rabbit Model
ABSTRACT Background Drug‐coated balloon (DCB) are effective treatment options for patients with coronary artery disease and using of scoring or cutting balloon before the DCB usage were recommended. However, the effectiveness of lesion preparation with cutting balloons (CB) followed by DCB (CB + DCB) has not been evaluated before.
