Calcified portions of the vessel are detected in the one or more first medical images, The artificial intelligence model is trained for detecting calcified portions of the vessel in the input medical image in the second modality based on the one or more second medical images and the detected ...
Somestudieshave suggested that there is an association between statin use and coronary artery calcification. Furthermore, there is no evidence that statin treatment halts the progression of coronary calcification. However, this does not mean that statins accelerate the progression of atherosclerosis. In ...
Intravascular ultrasound: IVUS provides high-resolution, cross-sectional coronary artery images, allowing for a better assessment of calcified plaques than angiography alone. IVUS provides the calcification's depth, extent, and distribution and helps distinguish between superficial and deeper calcification. I...
Dyslipidemia and abnormal cholesterol metabolism are closely related to coronary artery calcification (CAC) and are also critical factors in cardiovascular disease death. In recent years, the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) has been widely used to evaluate vascular sclerosis. This study aimed to inv...
Coronary artery calcification refers to the calcification of atherosclerotic lesions in the walls of the coronary arteries, which is associated with inflammation, elevated lipid content, and increased arterial stiffness. It is commonly measured using computed tomography and is a recognized risk factor for...

One of the most common methods for diagnosing coronary artery disease is the use of the coronary artery calcium score CT. However, the current diagnostic method using the coronary artery calcium score CT requires a considerable time, because the radiolog
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a complex disease that causes reduced or absent blood flow in one or more of the arteries that encircle and supply the heart. The disease may be focal or diffuse.
CACS可以预测未来发生心血管事件的风险,并用于指导治疗和管理决策。 总结来说,“coronary artery calcification score”是指冠状动脉钙化评分,用于评估冠状动脉钙化的程度或严重性,并提供心血管疾病风险的预测和指导治疗决策的依据。常见的冠状动脉钙化评分方法包括Agatston Score和CACS。
Coronary artery calcification (CAC)Computed tomography (CT)Recent studies have demonstrated a complex interplay between comorbid cardiovascular disease, COVID-19 pathophysiology, and poor clinical outcomes. Coronary artery calcification (CAC) may therefore aid in risk stratification of COVID-19 patients.#...
