Coronary Artery Calcium Model

무엇을 하는가

This is operationalization of a Coronary Artery Calcium (CAC) scoring computer vision model that can predict cardiovascular disease risk. This will help clinicians identify and prioritize patients at high risk for cardiac events to intervene. The input is CT chest images and the output will be calcium scores and calcium masks that physicians can review to verify high patient cardiovascular risk. This will help clinicians identify and prioritize patients at high risk for cardiac events to intervene. It will improve the quality of veteran healthcare.
