Keynote: AI for Analysis of Coronary Artery Disease
摘要
Coronary artery disease is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Coronary CT is a non-invasive tool enabling analysis of the coronary arteries and providing important diagnostic information. However, current clinical analysis typically remains limited to visual evaluation of the coronary artery tree as the extraction of the detailed quantitative information requires high level of expertise and it is a time-consuming process. Besides the information about the coronary arteries, these images also contain information about the whole heart and body composition that may be valuable for the prediction of cardiovascular risk.
