Background Deep learning (DL) algorithms are gaining extensive attention for their excellent performance in image recognition tasks. DL models can automatically make a quantitative assessment of complex medical characteristics and achieve increased accuracy diagnosis with higher efficiency. Purpose To determine the feasibility using approach to predict clinically negative axillary lymph node metastasis from US images patients primary breast cancer. Materials Methods A data set cancer nodes...
To determine the correlation between degree of plaque enhancement with contrast agent microbubbles and clinical symptoms in patients carotid atherosclerotic plaque.The study was approved by hospital ethical committee, informed consent obtained from all patients. One hundred four (83 men: mean age, 64 years +/- 9 [standard deviation]; 21 women: 61 10) plaques were studied standard material-enhanced ultrasonography (US). Contrast evaluated visual interpretation quantitative analysis.Among 104...
Studies on deep learning (DL)-based models in breast ultrasound (US) remain at the early stage due to a lack of large datasets for training and independent test sets verification. We aimed develop DL model differentiating benign from malignant lesions US using multicenter dataset explore model's ability assist radiologists.A total 14,043 images 5012 women were prospectively collected 32 hospitals. To model, patients 30 hospitals randomly divided into cohort (n = 4149) an internal 466). The...
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can result in an endothelial dysfunction acute phase. However, information on the late vascular consequences of COVID-19 is limited.Brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD) examination were performed, and inflammatory biomarkers assessed 86 survivors for 327 days (IQR 318-337 days) after recovery. Comparisons made with 28 age-matched sex-matched healthy controls 30 risk factor-matched patients.Brachial FMD was significantly lower than [median (IQR) 7.7...
Background: Distinguishing light-chain cardiac amyloidosis (AL CA) from left ventricular wall thickening (LVWT) resulted other etiologies has proven to be challenging. This study aimed determine the sensitivity and specificity of relative apical sparing in diagnosing AL CA investigate differences clinical echocardiographic characteristics between patients with those non-apical sparing.
Abstract Aims H 2 FPEF and HFA‐PEFF scores have demonstrated prognostic value in heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction. This study aimed to explore the of for HF risk stratification patients hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Methods results In this cohort study, 1068 HCM were included. Then calculated categorize into low, intermediate, high score groups. The primary endpoint was a composite first hospitalization all‐cause death. 594 (55.6%) classified discordantly. After...
This study aimed to explore the validation and diagnostic value of multiple right ventricle (RV) volumes functional parameters derived from a novel artificial intelligence (AI)-based three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) algorithm compared cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR).A total 51 patients with broad spectrum clinical diagnoses were finally included in this study. AI-based RV 3DE was performed single-beat HeartModel mode within 24 hours after CMR. In entire population, ventricular...
Previous studies in patients with a history of Kawasaki disease have focused on vascular endothelial function coronary arteries, and the systemic arteries is not fully understood. Furthermore effect vitamin C after has been elucidated.We attempted to analyze endothelium-dependent vasodilatation brachial artery by using high resolution ultrasonography investigate whether acute administration could restore such dysfunction.We compared 39 (7.1 +/- 2.7 years) 1.0 9.6 years 17 matched healthy...
To determine whether carotid plaque neovascularization as assessed with contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (US) can help predict future coronary events in patients stable artery disease (CAD).The study was approved by the hospital ethics committee, and informed consent obtained from all patients. Three hundred twelve consecutive (228 men; mean age, 63 years ± 9; age range, 42-88 years) both CAD at least one thicker than 2.0 mm underwent standard US. Patients were followed up for 8-47 months...
