Frequency in the anomalous origin of the left main coronary artery with angiography in a Turkish population. [PDF]
We estimated the frequency of anatomic variations in origin of the left coronary artery in a Turkish population by analyzing the angiographic data of 10,042 consecutive adult patients undergoing coronary angiography. Among 10,042 adult patients, 5 (0.04%)

Fast and accurate numerical simulations for the study of coronary artery bypass grafts by artificial neural network [PDF]
In this work a machine learning-based Reduced Order Model (ROM) is developed to investigate in a rapid and reliable way the hemodynamic patterns in a patient-specific configuration of Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG). The computational domain is composed by the left branches of coronary arteries when a stenosis of the Left Main Coronary Artery (LMCA)

Primary congenital anomalies of the coronary arteries and relation to atherosclerosis: an angiographic study in Lebanon [PDF]
Background Most coronary artery anomalies are congenital in origin. This study angiographically determined the prevalence of different forms of anomalous aortic origins of coronary anomalies and their anatomic variation in a selected adult Lebanese ...

Automatic extraction of coronary arteries using deep learning in invasive coronary angiograms [PDF]
Accurate extraction of coronary arteries from invasive coronary angiography (ICA) is important in clinical decision-making for the diagnosis and risk stratification of coronary artery disease (CAD). In this study, we develop a method using deep learning to automatically extract the coronary artery lumen. Methods.

Presence and characteristics of coronary artery fistulas among patients undergoing coronary angiography [PDF]
Background: Coronary artery fistula is defined as a connection between one or more coronary artery and a heart chamber. Aims: The aim of the study was to determine the overall incidence of coronary artery fistulas in Polish patients undergoing diagnostic

Detection and localization of Coronary Arterial Lesion with the Aid of Impedance Cardiography [PDF]
In recent years, coronary artery disease is escalating and is likely to assume an epidemic proportion by 2030. Currently the reliable methods for detection of coronary arterial lesions are either conventional coronary angiogram (CAG) or MDCT (Multiple Detector Computed Tomography) coronary angiogram.

Single coronary artery with origin of right coronary artery from left circumflex in a patient with ventricular tachycardia: a case report [PDF]
Only a few cases of a single coronary artery (CA) have been described. Almost all cases reported so far also had associated atherosclerotic coronary artery or valvular heart disease. We present a 48 years old male with atypical chest pain with an episode

Exercise-induced left septal fascicular block: an expression of severe myocardial ischemia [PDF]
The electrocardiogram (ECG) criteria for the left septal fascicular block (LSFB) are not universally accepted and many other denominations can be seen in literature: focal septal block, septal focal block, left septal fascicular block, left anterior ...

Coronary artery anomalies: A diagnostic challenge [PDF]
Coronary artery anomalies (CAAs) are found in approximately 1% of all patients undergoing coronary angiography and in 0.3% of patients undergoing autopsy (Roberts, 1986). CAAs may be classified into those of origin and course, intrinsic coronary arterial
