Coronary Artery Semantic Labeling using Edge Attention Graph Matching Network [PDF]
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the primary causes leading deaths worldwide. The presence of atherosclerotic lesions in coronary arteries is the underlying pathophysiological basis of CAD, and accurate extraction of individual arterial branches using invasive coronary angiography (ICA) is crucial for stenosis detection and CAD diagnosis.

AGMN: Association Graph-based Graph Matching Network for Coronary Artery Semantic Labeling on Invasive Coronary Angiograms [PDF]
Semantic labeling of coronary arterial segments in invasive coronary angiography (ICA) is important for automated assessment and report generation of coronary artery stenosis in the computer-aided diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD). Inspired by the training procedure of interventional cardiologists for interpreting the structure of coronary ...

Quantitative perfusion and water transport time model from multi b-value diffusion magnetic resonance imaging validated against neutron capture microspheres [PDF]
Intravoxel Incoherent Motion (IVIM) is a non-contrast magnetic resonance imaging diffusion-based scan that uses a multitude of b-values to measure various speeds of molecular perfusion and diffusion, sidestepping inaccuracy of arterial input functions or bolus kinetics in quantitative imaging. We test a new method of IVIM quantification and compare our

Waveform Phasicity Prediction from Arterial Sounds through Spectrogram Analysis using Convolutional Neural Networks for Limb Perfusion Assessment [PDF]
Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is a common form of arterial occlusive disease that is challenging to evaluate at the point-of-care. Hand-held dopplers are the most ubiquitous device used to evaluate circulation and allows providers to audibly "listen" to the blood flow.

Hyper Association Graph Matching with Uncertainty Quantification for Coronary Artery Semantic Labeling [PDF]
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the primary causes leading to death worldwide. Accurate extraction of individual arterial branches on invasive coronary angiograms (ICA) is important for stenosis detection and CAD diagnosis. However, deep learning-based models face challenges in generating semantic segmentation for coronary arteries due to the ...

Wall Shear Stress Analysis in Stenosed Carotid Arteries with Different Shapes of Plaque [PDF]
Atherosclerosis is a disease caused due to formation of plaque into the artery. Increase in plaque affects the wall shear stress. The present study is performed to calculate wall shear stress in different geometries of stenosed carotid artery. A 2D model of different geometries is generated using CFD for Non- Newtonian model.

ECGDetect: Detecting Ischemia via Deep Learning [PDF]
Coronary artery disease(CAD) is the most common type of heart disease and the leading cause of death worldwide[1]. A progressive state of this disease marked by plaque rupture and clot formation in the coronary arteries, also known as an acute coronary syndrome (ACS), is a condition of the heart associated with sudden, reduced blood flow caused due to ...

Neural network-based coronary dominance classification of RCA angiograms [PDF]
Background. Cardiac dominance classification is essential for SYNTAX score estimation, which is a tool used to determine the complexity of coronary artery disease and guide patient selection toward optimal revascularization strategy. Objectives. Cardiac dominance classification algorithm based on the analysis of right coronary artery (RCA) angiograms ...

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.
