Objectives Performance evaluation of a fully automated system for calculating computed
tomography (CT) coronary artery calcium scores from contrast medium-enhanced coronary …

The coronary artery calcium score (CS), an independent predictor of cardiovascular events,
can be obtained from a stand-alone nonenhanced computed tomography (CT) scan (CSCT) …

Background When coronary calcium scoring is performed in patients with suspected
coronary artery disease, a separate noncontrast scan is acquired before contrast-enhanced …

Aims The extent of coronary artery calcification (CAC) has been shown to be a strong and
independent predictor for cardiovascular events. Usually, CAC scoring is performed in non …

BACKGROUND: Limitations to the coronary calcium score include its requirement for
noncontrast imaging and radiation exposure that approaches current methods for contrast …

Purpose To evaluate the prognostic outcome of cardiac computed tomography (CT) for
prediction of major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) in low-risk patients suspected of having …

Purpose To evaluate the feasibility of using virtual noncontrast material–enhanced (VNC)
computed tomographic (CT) series derived from dual-energy CT imaging studies for …

Cardiac calcium scoring is an important step for the diagnosis of coronary heart diseases.
Therefore, non-contrast enhanced cardiac computed tomography has been established as …

We validate a method of calcium scoring on CT coronary angiography (CTCA) and propose
an algorithm for the assessment of patients with stable chest pain. 503 consecutive patients …

Objectives To develop a fully automatic multiview shape constraint framework for
comprehensive coronary artery calcium scores (CACS) quantification via deep learning on …
