CAAS software showed better overall accuracy and precision than QAngio XA (with automatic Y- or T-shape bifurcation algorithm selection) for various phantom diameters including minimum lumen diameter (0.012 ± 0.103 mm vs. 0.041 ± 0.322 mm, P = 0.003), reference vessel diameter...
The reference diameters are measured for comparison to in-procedure estimates following the same algorithm (supplement). If valid reference estimation is not possible by OCT, 3D QCA–derived reference size is used. Poststent implantation and wire recrossing OCT runs are analyzed for geographical miss...

Use of coronary imaging and physiology assessment should be incorporated in the algorithm of bifurcation interventions for greater technical and clinical success.doi:10.1097/HCO.0000000000000775Anthony W.A. WassefShuangbo LiuBobby YanagawaSubodh Verma...
The algorithm written to interpret the neural network signals into flow regimes required special procedures to take care of the misclassification from the neural network. The initial estimates of reservoir parameters from the neural network were found to be reasonably close to the eventual estimates ...

Moreover, the algorithm was proved clinically feasible in cases with stents deployed in a diseased coronary artery bifurcation, enabling CFD studies to assess the hemodynamic environment. In combination with patient-specific CFD studies, our method can be applied to stenting optimization, training in ...
METHOD: We used a dedicated system (QVA-CMS V. 6.0 with the Bifurcation Module, MEDIS, Leiden, The Netherlands) applying a minimum cost algorithm tuned to detect the contours of the proximal main vessel (PMV), distal main vessel (DMV), and side-branch (SB). We assessed the intra- and...
